This ancient breed, an ancestor of the Bearded Collie, came  near to extinction after WWII.  This medium size dog can measure up to 20 inches at the shoulder and weigh up to 50 pounds.  The Polish Lowland Sheepdog is lively but self-controlled, clever and perceptive, and well known for an excellent memory.  He is stable and self confident.  He needs a dominant master and consistent training from the time he is very young.  When not used as a herding or working dog, he can be a magnificent companion as he seems to fit into any type of lifestyle.  He is extremely loyal, but somewhat aloof and suspicious of strangers.  Their long shaggy top coat over wooly underneath  is considered nonshedding.  The PON does require frequent brushing to keep from matting.  The average height at the withers for an adult dog is 18­20 inches, and 17­19 inches for a bitch.  Contact the dog breeders below for your next family friend.
