The President of the Norwegian Kennel Club expressed in a editorial note in our Dog Sport Magazine that the ban of the Czechoslovakian Wolfdog not was based on facts but on special interest from a group of individuals.
The information received by (among others) our Department of Justice is identified as false, but even knowing this fact and the Departments statement of no evidence of the CSV as a dangerous breed, the Ministry reccomende the ban "due to the close heritage to the wolf and that the breed more likely than any another breed may be a threath to children" (which is more or less a word by word quoting from a public letter made by one of the most prominent individuals in support of the ban). Even a petition ftrom the Slovakian Kennel Club did not change the Ministrys opinion.
As you probably know, the supporters of a ban have made the CSV a "major enemy". This include false information to our governmental authorities, news articles, TV spots and even personal and public harassment of the owners of the wolfdog, in particular the CSV.
It is no secret that this particular site is used as a source of information by the supporters of a ban and by not knowing your identity, I do hope of your understanding by "keeping the cards close to my chest".
