I wouldn't say it. I'm against Mutara and I'm from middle-east Europe and by the way: there are many people in Czech Republic and everyone in Slovakia who are against it.

Canadian and european wolves are different "breeds". They differ from eachother in regards to exterieur, character and genetics. I will put it simply:
Czechoslovakian wolfdog = european wolf + German shepherdog
This is what the breed standard says and if someone wants to make a canadian wolf cross then nobody will be against it. BUT the involved people should create a new breed and not try to put these animals into our breed!!!

Then I will give you more practical argument: some time ago there was a problem with CzWs in your country (Norway) and some people tried to put CzW on a special list of dangerous dog breeds. And some people tried to do the same in other countries. Luckily there were no reasons to ban CzWs and it was easy to make a protest. But with new wolf crosses we will give a strong argument to opponents of this breed and it will be only a matter of time when CzW will be banned in Norway and other countries

The Czechoslovakian army started CzW experiment because they had a special goal. They wanted to have an extremly resistent dog with perfect orientation sense and unbeatable tracking abilites. This experiment was successful and that's the only reason why we have Czechoslovakian wolfdogs. There was no place for scruples. The breed selection in
army was extremly strict and cruel. And only because of this the breed exists. Now we can't expect that normal people will be able to repeat such selection.
