Default Isn't it odd

Hm.
If I'm not completely out on the waves :-)

In the GSD stud book there are, even if denied by some, references to
crossing of local variants of shepherd dogs and wolves.
In v. S.'s book The German Shepherd Dog in Word and pictures he apply to
certain breeders not to bring in more wolf blood into his new breed
(re. the later change of name from GSD to Alsatian Wolfdog).
Margos quoting from the book "100 yrs - the GSD": "Besides it he fighted
against attempts at crossing GSDs with wolfs: this expert [Stephanitz]
knew, wolfsblood is bad for persistence, endurance and sharpness.". Could
one say by his statement that v. S is creating his new breed where
persistence, endurance and sharpness is the final goal?
Persistence and endurance is the the major advantages of the CSV, and
sharpness is unwanted?

Please understand, I'm not starting a debate on the GSD but seraching for
arguments for not letting the CSV become a banned breed in my country.
Beeing a former owner of two GSDs I'm not attempting to discriminate this
wonderful breed, only searching for angels of how to argue against a
possible CSV ban by referring to the origin of the GSD as one of many
possible ways.

Referring to this book, Margo, do you know of the author(s) and year of
publishing?
