Beskydsky bundas

After the successful release of the book about the Beskydy Bundáš in Czech in 2023, this book is now also available in English. The book offers a glimpse into the ancient history of the Wallachia region. In this book, author Jozef Šurkovský (*1979) not only captures the former life of shepherds in the Beskydy mountains and Wallachia, but he also revives the topic of the Beskydský Bundáš, a herding dog that has unfortunately become extinct. This herding dog, with its exceptional qualities, once roamed the pastures and meadows of the Beskydy and was an indispensable helper to local shepherds in the past century. Its uniqueness even led cynologists to include it in the list of " Czech National Dog Breeds" (previously " Czechoslovak National Dog Breeds" ). Over time, however, the Beskydy Bundáš has been somewhat forgotten, which is a great pity. Hopefully, this book may one day contribute to the Beskydy Bundáš once again roaming the vast, beautiful, fragrant pastures of our Wallachia.
