Hallo Laura,
I don't know how many breeders you've asked for a puppy, but probably not
the right ones. I also don't know where you live.
I'am from Czech Republic. Here are some breeders who would sell you for
£1900 maybe their wife or husband.:-))
But you can find here some breeders who are choosing the future owner of
their puppy. What is not good for Csw for sure
is to let the dog almost all the time with pack. They need to bild up a
relation with you individually. And they need gite enough
of owners time If they should be well-bred. You can have your dog in his own
room but It is not good to let the dog closed too long.
I have my Brenna in our flat. I have no problems to let her there alone for
five or six hours per day when I need it. But problem starts when there is
not just one dog.They are very inventive. You should really meet more dogs
and their owners. I think nature of Csw depends from
big part on the owner and life conditions prepared for this dog. Even If the
dog seems to be shy already as a puppy you can still more or less change
this.
I have never met any Csw which would be agressive to people. This doesen't
mean that they don't exist but It's evidence of
rare occurrence of agressivity. You can do from Csw very shy dog which is
afraid of everything or agressive killer of animals,
agressive to people or obedient good socialized dog who likes people and
other dogs(little problem is among males which are dominant,
but this can be also reduced). These dogs are a little bit special. They
have some natural features of behaving. It's really good to read,
ask abot everything in what you are not sure, and meet many owners and
breeders of Csw. And even if you do this when you would
have a puppy of Csw you find out that you still don't know what to do in
many situations.
