CzW needs and characteristics

Fair enough Rona, I guess I really didn't think about the amount of information I was actually asking for!

In that case can someone point me in the right direction? I tend to get side-tracked searching through forum posts...

Just start from the first thread on this forum

And read till you finnish them all. Seriously. This will take a while, but it is worth it.

Yes, that's the thing with forums - they are kind of like a conversation - lots of little twists and turns. I've read through quite a lot of this forum uver the past few years, but couldn't begin to tell you where the "best" place to look is - the only advice is to not get frustrated over some of the ugly arguments and personal vendettas you will undoubtedly come across (though some of those are useful too...). That's not the breed...just people.

There is a TON of great info here, and very helpful people - have fun with Rona's suggestion!

And - if there are specific questions - don't hesitate to ask!

I agree that the information that's widely published about the breed isn't really helpful.

The two descriptions I've read on CsVs in actual published books (2 dog encyclopedias) both compare them to GSDs and basically rate them as "less good" GSDs..

And it might be true if they talk about obidance

But when it comes to Trailing and Health, CsV are to be better

The "Thing" about CsV is that it tend to be ALLOT more work when it comes to obidance training as they REALLY lose there interest very very fast...

The Czechoslovakian Wolfdog is intelligent and has very easy to learn new things. Though it can’t be trained like a normal dog as it easily looses interest when the same exercise is repeated.

I agree on the above 100%

My dog is best if I do not repeated anything at all

Only one time / training or some time inbetween... Not 1,2,3,4 times, becose on time nr 4 interest is lost looooooong time ago

EVEN on the most fun things as "go fetch the ball"

BTW, 4 times is Hronecs personal record on "go fetch the ball"

Very best regards / Mikael

I agree with you Mikael, but I just don't understand why there is always the comparison to GSDs?

After all, how odd is it to say Miniature Pinschers are "less short" versions of Dachshunds!!! (they were bred from Dachshunds ages ago)

It is its own dog, no need to draw comparisons..

Yes and I think in time I it will be just a Vlcak, but now if someone ask me "what kind of breed is that" I also will start to talk about GSD X Wolf / former czechoslovakian republic...

The breed is to smal and yong, but in time now when it is exported, I think it will start to get better on this part, but this far most FCI judges did not even see one

To them and all oters that do not know the breed, it is a GSD / Wolfcross

Very best regards / Mikael

Well, the thing is, that when you tell people it is a working breed, they think it will be as "normal" as GSD... They say "ah, ok, I need it to guard my yard, bark at people" and so on

And then you simply start explaining, taking a "normal" dog as GSD and saying "no, this dog should not live in a fenced yard like gsd, thay do not bark like gsd, they do not want to do anything to make you happy like gsd..."
