Venezuela’s late president Hugo Chavez used to delight in recalling how Nevado, a rare breed of shaggy sheepdog known as mucuchies, fought alongside Bolivar. Chavez rescued the mucuchies, named for the Andean town where the breed originated 400 years ago, from near-extinction in 2008 by providing funding to breed the remaining 23 purebreds.
