Breed Character

[Hanka]

Hello RONA: I think, you don´t know "black part" of history of the breed. Of course, csw was dogs for tracking TOO. But on the borders was dogs, what had name "SUP". SUP are first litters from czech words. my english is bad for explaning it. Maybe Mirka can translate it. They was dogs in closed area alone, without soldiers-owners. When somebody wanted across the border to west Evropa, in kennel with wolfdogs ring bell and kennel was open. The dogs must run and find the person. It is in area between two fences. The action must be very quick, the person must have not time for climbing to second fence. The kennels was for example in distance 500m.When dogs meet this person, they must stop him. Of course, they bited him. Usually worked two dogs. Sometimes was person killed by dogs. But nobody from army spoke about it. Because it was "secret of state". And our present darlings-our wolfdogs did it too.....No only german sheepdogs.
But what was good-army did first selection for work character. Present breeders must continue, if we want have working breed. Not like in "some states". It is very sad for breeders in Czech, Slovakia, when we see wolfogs with tail under stomach in showrings. It is not WOLFDOG. It is parody to working breed. And titles from shows? They are NOTHING.
