I also prefer Vlcak. Though what is the correct way to say it? Want to make sure I'm getting it right.

Though as I said in a previous post, I don't think they should be grouped with the herding breeds as they are in other countries.

Here in Bulgaria it is pronounced ''Vulchack'' but the 'u' isn't really pronounced just kinda caught in the back of your throat, if you know what I mean?

I have seen people write that they have heard it pronounced more like ''veal chuck''...

Guess it would be best to find out how it is pronounced in Czech or Slovakian and go with the more authentic sounding name

I would like to know if we are goofing also! I understand the proper sound (which I can barely make - in the back of my throat), but I don't believe many other Americans do. I posted on my site "Veel-chuck".. I would be glad to change this if it is incorrect!

It would seem it is us native English speakers who must have changed the name to something easier for us at some point in the past

Vlcak comes from Vlk (wolf). I am not very sure how Slovakians are pronouncing it, but I think it sounds like "vlchaack". "veal chuck" or "veel chuck" sounds more like polish name of that breed "wilczak". I will ask Pavel anyway.

But should it be original "ceskoslovensky" or english "czechoslovakian"?

There's a sound clip here on WD, posted when the question was asked before.

In it, (maybe it was a Czech-speaker) it sounded more like vul-chak (vul, rhymes with with the beginning part of 'wolf'.

I wonder which is right? I'll try to dig up the link.

Yes, vlchaak is correct. There is no "i" in the beggining. And there is a long "a" at the end. We write it vlčák.

I was very surprised to see this the following on wolfdog after all the slating and bashing my small kennels have received for daring to "bastardise" the breed. I was shocked to see people openly cross and mix breed here!
http://www.wolfdog.org/site/dbase/d/5570

http://www.wolfdog.org/site/dbase/d/7853

Ive also just been reading another thread here where they are debating a experimental mating which took place in CZ in 2003 with pure female Canadian wolf and CSV without registration. Apparently the F1 pups from this mating has been registered as CSV dogs and the laugh is that the "pure" CSV is a cross of Carpathian wolf with GSD NOT a Canadian Wolf. The Saarloos is outcome of Canadian wolf with GSD.
They have F1 crosses there which possibly has been mixed with breeding of pure CSV and all of them are stating that kennels Passo del Lupo and Foresta Incantata have mixed some of the offspring of this experimental dogs into their breeding.
So there is a good chance that such dogs are still in CZ so what a laugh them talking about crossbreeds if they mixed in the wrong wolf to start with and potentialy even in some cases the selling of hybrids.

Makes Orkwolf with a handful of dogs and all the hype that that has created seem a little like a pin in a haystack to what is really going on with the breed! However we will be breeding pure in the future.
Thanks

Have you not seen the multiple threads on here about Mutara, and Passo del Lupo? Have you ever wondered why PdL's litters are banned from WD, even the purebred matches? Nobody is excused and small scale mutt breeders aren't 'less worse' than large. Mutara as I understand were denied from slovak and czech registration. And all offspring from this 'project' are marked so in the database.

Thank you for taking the time to write back.
It amazes me how certain ones outside the UK slate me for crossing, yet their "best friends" in the UK cross their pet csv mixed dogs with husky mix and they dont say a word on here about them, hypercritical lol
