It is only 2 occations where one can measure exact percentages. The first occation is the pure dog (100% dog) and the pure wolf (100% wolf). Next occation is the offspring that will inherit 50% from both pure parents. That is F1 generation if the pures are founder-animals. So F1 generation is 50% wolf and 50% dog.
When breeding semiwolves (50%) with other semiwolves(50%) one never knows the exact distirbution of their grandparents (pure wolf and pure dog) genes. Although they will inherit half of their mothers and half of their fathers genes, they dont necessarily inherit 25% of each of their grandparents genes.
Breeding a 50% back to a pure (wolf or dog) will certainly give offspring that exceed 50% (wolf or dog), but you cannot say for sure it is 75%!
So in theory you should be able to breed back to a pure.
The percentages indicated on checkoslovakian wolfdogs pedigrees just gives us an idea of the wolf-blood inherited. It is not mathematically and genetically correct!
Take a look at all the pictures of the first generation wolfdogs. You can see wolf-types emerging after many generations of breeding under the 50% limit.
