These dogs take a lot of care, almost like dreadlocks for dogs.

I am a dog person but I don't think this would fit for me, even if I love dogs very much.

Beautiful dog- very little shedding once the curls develop. Puppies are soft and fluffy.
There's no way they grow like that naturally, is there?
The Komondor's coat is long, thick, and strikingly corded white coat, about 20 – 27 cm long (the heaviest amount of fur in the canine world), which resembles dreadlocks or a mop. The puppy coat is soft and fluffy. However, the coat is wavy and tends to curl as the puppy matures. A fully mature coat is formed naturally from the soft undercoat and the coarser outer coatcombining to form tassels, or cords and will take around two years to form. Some help is needed in separating the cords so the dog does not turn into one large matted mess. The length of the cords increases with time as the coat grows. Shedding is minimal with this breed, contrary to what one might think (once cords are fully formed). The only substantial shedding occurs as a puppy before the dreadlocks fully form. The Komondor is born with only a white coat,[11] unlike the similar-looking Puli, which can be white, black, or sometimes grayish. However, a working Komondor's coat may be discolored by the elements, and may appear off-white if not washed regularly. Traditionally the coat protected the Komondor from wolves' bites, as the bites were not able to penetrate the thick coat.[12] The coat of the Komondor takes about two and a half days to dry after a bath.

Komondor is only white. Puli can be white, black or grayish in color.
