Komondor is thought to have originated in Hungary more than 500 years ago. It still retains the mantle, somewhat unusual weight consists of white rope, which makes the dog look like animals so it was bred to protect: the sheep. A. History and Background The earliest record of the Komondor date back to 1555, but is expected to multiply there much earlier. Its main role is to guard the flock against predators. They are so effective, in fact, that some believe is fully depleted populations of wolves in Hungary. Komondor is derived from Owtcharka, the leggy Russian, who was brought to Hungary by the Huns. Dogs bear such a striking resemblance to the sheep Racka or Magyar, with curly wool and train like dogs, that they easily mixed with sheep and appears to be part of the flock. The Komondor was first introduced to the United States in 1933, four years later, the American Kennel Club officially recognized the breed. Since the devastation of World War II, however, the breed was almost destroyed in Europe. Fortunately, dedicated breeders able to revive the popularity of the breed and their numbers. Komondor is one of the most interesting dog in the show ring, but only the best on display. Thus, the Komondor breed is commonplace throughout the world, except in Hungary. Although there are a few breeders in the U.S. the new generation of pastors who have taken an interest in the Komondor, because it enhances the ability of pastors to keep livestock. B. Personality and Temperament Dogs good with livestock and other pets, and are very happy when given the opportunity to watch someone or something. A true guardian, was always protective of his family, but may misinterpret rough play among children as aggression. It is an independent, calm, and quiet, but can be dominant or stubborn. Komondor is not a dog for the light at heart. In addition, early socialization is important to familiarize Komondor with strange people and dogs. C. Physical characteristics

Fruitless diet programs are often a psychological-not physiological-problem. Many diet programs are potentially effective but fail to produce immediate results, causing disheartened dieters to abandon an otherwise rewarding path. Substitute quick, robust losses, and dieters experience optimism rather than demotivation and enjoy continued progress rather than resignation. Nutrition expert and personal trainer Brian Flatt recognized this pattern and created The 2 Week Diet, a new weight loss program that flips the conventional psychology on its head to great effect. Users typically report losing 8-16 pounds in 14 days. "Nothing breeds success like success," said Flatt, who also owns R.E.V. Fitness in Southern California. "Now dieters can see their progress almost immediately, so instead of growing discouraged and bouncing from program to program, they devote sustained energy to their current diet plan." The notion that early success generates more success has been substantiated in a recent study by Arnout van de Rijt, Associate Professor in Stony Brook University's Department of Sociology and the Institute for Advanced Computational Science (IACS). He concluded, "Modest initial success may be sufficient to trigger a self-propelling cascade of success in various success-breeds-success scenarios." Flatt applies this wisdom to his system, "When a dieter sees quick results, he or she becomes more engaged. That produces a 'snowball effect': results get better and better as dieters see themselves getting leaner and leaner." On this program, dieters notice favorable body composition changes in the first couple of days. In the first week alone, dieters are likely to see in the neighborhood of 10 pounds of fat stripped from their body. Flatt exults, "Their clothes will be looser, they will feel lighter, and they'll feel 10 times better." His program does much more to help dieters lose as much weight as possible. It corrects the
