Guess the Breed(s)
(rules)

This is Bokdong! He’s about 75 pounds and 36 inches from neck to the base of his tail (small for his breed), intelligent, very affectionate toward his family (including our other dog), but aloof toward other people and animals.  Unlike most (2/3rds?) of his breed, his ears flop down.

Your hint for Bokdong is that he is a pure bred dog! You might need to break out Wikipedia for this one, because you’ve probably never heard of it. His breed is not recognized in any Kennel Club, and is generally only found in one area.

And Bokdong is….!!! A Pungsan

The Pungsan or Poongsan (Chosongul: 풍산개; Hanja: ) is a breed of hunting dog from Korea. It receives its name from the mountainous northern county of Pungsan, now Kimhyŏnggwŏn, where the dogs were first bred. It is a very rare breed of dog, hardly known outside Korea.
