I am asking this because seeing this pictures people who does not know the breed csw can belive that they are always without problems with other dogs on dogplaygrounds. In the german forum we just discuss this and the majority wrote that getting adult the csw is not playful with other dogs. Pavel wrote in concrete the only pack for your csw is your own pack. That must be said, csw with the age from around 2,5, 3 years are not able to play with others dogs, they do not like them.
I am wondering that an adult csw will be playful on toys. I can not belive. But Blitzen there are "working" lines in csw. CSW which their owners do work Schutzhund and other things. Good choice and good luck.

I think it is different for different dogs...
I wouldn't trust my female, Anthea in a dog park (loose). She wants to be above all other dogs (especially females) - period. She has excellent recall, and when in the "heel" position on or off lead, she won't go anywhere, it doesn't matter where we are. My almost 3 year-old male, Roni, I would trust with almost any dog, as long as there isn't a female in heat.
Same with his sister Ice - but they don't have quite as perfect recall - it's good, but not perfect. My younger male is rough but playful, fairly decent recall...but is just a week shy of being 1 year old - they do definitely change around 2 years, especially females - it's a big reason to wait to breed until they older, to see what they are "really" like. But it looks like, in some of the photos from summer camps, some older dogs are able to integrate with other unfamiliar dogs - maybe with some waiting time? It is something to be thoughtful of, for sure.
All of my dogs are very motivated by food, but my older male, Roni, is far more motivated by his favorite toy...it's an obscession.
