Dog breed

Combai

Origin: India

The Kombai or Polygar dog is a breed of working dog native to Tamil Nadu in Southern India. Traditionally kept for guarding and protection, they have a reputation for making excellent guard dogs. They were also occasionally used for hunting big game. The Kombai is an extremely rare and prized breed, and efforts are underway to increase the population of this breed. These efforts are showing signs of success, because of the various Kombai breeders along southern India who have helped to preserve this breed.
