Grooming guide: Mudi

Wavy to curly coat needs regular brushing. Self-cleaning.

What the Mudi pricing tells you

The Mudi (18-29 lb) is priced as a medium dog; bath, dry, and finish time all scale with that body mass.

Coat work matters next: Mudi carries a curly coat, and the weekly schedule compounds the yearly total.

Budget for the full 12-14 years window: Mudi temperament (Lively, alert, versatile) plus the grooming, boarding, and nail lines above compound into a predictable ownership cost.
