The Mudi is a herding dog breed from Hungary. It is closely related to the Puli and Pumi, from which it was separated in the 1930s. They continue to be used in herding, as well as participating in a variety of dog sports.

==History== The Mudi was first discovered as a breed in 1936 by Dr Dezso Fenyes in Hungary, where it became known as the "driver dog". Mudis nearly disappeared shortly after their recognition, as many were killed off during World War II. The breed became recognized by The Federation Cynologique Internationale in 1966. On January 5, 2022, the Mudi was recognized by the American Kennel Club as a purebred breed, and by The Kennel Club on June 12, 2025, effective July 1.
