predefinito Killing a stereotype.

My wife noticed that someone tried to register their "Czechoslovakian wolfdog" with USA (United Schutzhund clubs of America) but they denied their aplication stating that they consider wolf hybrids a dangerous breed and would not allow them in USA.

I'm thinking when the breed CsV - but the same can go for the Saarloos and the Lupo Italiano) starts to become more popular that we'll see more and moreof this and even them thrown in with "wolf-hybrid", "dangerous dog" legislation.

Educating people won't be easy - generally people are very stubborn in their beliefs but I'm thinking of one thing that could easily sway public opinion with the breed. People won't care that 90% of the lines are from German shepherds nor will they care that spitz breeds are far more wolfy in temperament than vlcaks are (the wolf is in there for the physical build and stamina - the pack mentality, intelligence, trainability, etc.. are from the GSD side).

Don't call them wolfdogs (honestly, that just screams hybrid to most people - despire "wolfhounds" are perfectly acceptable). Stick with the names, Vlcak, Saarloos, and Lupo Italiano. I seriously think the person mentioned above would have been accepted if they called it a Czechoslovakian Vlcak or just a Vlcak.

Thoughts on this (mainly for people in the US since the breed is still primarily unkown here).
