Maggie is a sheep guard dog (not a herding dog), a giant white Hungarian breed called a Kuvasz. She takes good care of her sheep and lambs and rarely leaves their side. Many black and white photos of Maggie, who is a beautiful dark-eyed dog, as she goes about her work. Simple, informative text. Very sweet photos of this ancient breed.
