Polish Lowland Sheepdog - PON - pon the dog |
|
The Polish Lowland Sheepdog (PON) is a robust sheepdog with roots in Tibet. In fact, it is said that the heavy fur which covers the eyes of this sheepdog is a natural adaptation to the glaring sunlight of the region. Nomadic tribes traveled with the ancestors of Polish Lowland Sheepdogs during their migration to European countries and the breed became established among the local population. Polish Lowland Sheepdogs developed a reputation for hard work, loyalty and strong herding instincts. The breed's herding instincts have survived for centuries and even today, they still need a job and will attempt to herd their human families in the absence of sheep. Polish Lowland Sheepdog (PON) lovers will appreciate reading the PON Digest online publication to learn more about this beloved breed.

Your Pon has fatty tumors
Occasionally, PON owners will post
to Yahoogroups about bumps or fatty tumors they have
come across while grooming their PONS and inquire if
this is common in the breed. The answer is not
uncomplicated, but studies indicate that overweight
dogs are more susceptible to fatty tumors called
lipomas. These lipomas have the consistency of a baggy
filled with water and may be found all over a PON's
body. For newbie owners this is scary and may result
in a quick visit to the vet Please
