Hrvatski Ovar Dog Breed
Yugoslavia
The Croatian sheepdog is a well-defined Pomeranian type with a lively expression, very pricked pointy ears and the head like a cone. However, the body is longer than most other Pomeranian breeds and it can even have a short tail naturally or it can be docked intentionally. The fur of the body is thick and slightly wavy, abundant in the back part of the muscles and around the neck, but short on the head, legs and feet. The color is black, although small white patches are allowed but not desired.
The height at withers may vary between 40 and 50 cm the same as for males and females.
