Exactly! When I ask them how I can be sure that "my crossdog of any origin" can pass for not being a wolfdog of less than 5 generetions, I get no answer... People has very little knowledge of whatever dogs , and like so the authorities.
In any case - those of you who are able to present a pedegree of 5th generation and forth - you cannot be stopped whatsoever in Sweden as long as you follow the regulations for any dog. That I have in writing from the man in charge in the Agricultural authorities. 5th generation and forth are considered as "100% dog"!
And what you write about Golden Retrievers - we have exactly the same story here in Sweden. I have seen statistics of dog bites from the hospitals in the whole country - Goldens tops them all..and just for the reasons you mentioned...sad. Families regard them as cute little living puppets and doesn=B4t realize they are hunting dogs who needs hard work and mental stimulance.
