What you Italian breeders do to your dogs to get that kind of coat?

I hope we will get an answer from Italian people but I heard some breeders there have kennels with air conditioning. And also if you keep dogs in kennels (expecially if you live in mountains) the dogs will heve much better coat then these living at home.

Anyway - you have to see Slovakian (or some Czech) dogs in winter. They have beautiful hair. The difference to Italian breeders is: Slovakian/Czech dogs are our of hair in summer and Italian dogs have the same hair during the whole year... (of course not all - 'normal' Italian dogs have 'normal' hair...

I try to find answer on pedigrees, but is not there.

No, there is no answer - it must be bacause of the conditions and because of the additions to food or something like this. There was nice example: some people were delighted with the hair of some italian dogs. They decided to buy an adult female with very beautiful hair. I saw this female after her arrive to CZ - she had very thick coat.....but after some months she loosed everything and never came back to the same condition. In CZ she was not different from other dogs living there...

I also noticed that standard give a very much "free" for coat,

The standard is alway like this. But there are internal rules for everything which are much more exact....

=====================

Straight,

We can sometimes see dogs with curly hairs - it is a fault. Sometimes even disqualification fault.

close.

Sometimes breeders want to reach long coat. But instead of "wolfish" hair they get long hair over whole body. Such coat doesn't look good and also have tendency to "open" on the back. It is also a fault.

Winter and summer coat differ greatly.

It is very important. It is a huge fault if a Wolfdog has winter hair during the hot summer. I really saw a Italian dog which get the description "untypical hair condition" because of it.
Of course not all judges know the standard and it is sometimes funny - with one and the same dog you can get on two dog shows in summer two different descriptions. If the judge is expert you will get something like "hair typical for the season" (possitive) and if the judge have no idea about this breed you will get "hair sheding" (negative).
There is really a huge problems with such judges because they think we breed collies where only the hair is important (even if it is untypical for the season)...

In winter an immense undercoat together with the topcoat, forms a thick coat all over the body..

Czechoslovakian Wolfdogs have different type of hair over all body. It is a fault if the hair have the same lenght.... (you can see something like this by Huskies and also some CzWs - also these from Italy). From the first view you must see the differences by a dog - if not it doesn't have good hair even if the coat is nice....

The coat should be about 6 cm thick on the sides... CzW have mane (longer hair on the neck) like wolves and there is also longer hair on the withers and the back - it should be to 13 cm long. The longest hair are in the middle of the back - on the backbone - it should be about 15 cm. The numbers I wrote are numbers for an adult male dog - females have shorter hair and also not so rich...

It is necessary for the hair to cover the belly, the inside of the upper thigh, the scrotum, the inner part of the ears and the area between the toes.

It is also important because commont fault are ears 'bald' inside - such dogs look more like GSDs. Also typical for CzW are hairs on the belly - none of the judges will check it but breeders much pay attention to it so also this part of body is good coated and protected from the cold...
