Norwegian ban on SW and CzW

I do know of the responsibility its is something needed when owning any dog not only a wolfdog. As for the advice well here on this forum I havent heard any advice regarding keeping of the wolfdog itself.....

If it goes about my knowledge of the dogs then I have heard about the CSV long ago but didnt plan then to own a dog, so when I decided to get a dog then I did check more info about it and in the end found out that it really is banned in Norway in a way that makes it impossible to own the dog in Norway until it gets legalized. While learning more about the CSV I did also discover the Saarloos and got more info about it. And after reading the breed characteristic I found out that it is very similar to the CSV in character and that some of its traits are even better for me and the place where I do mainly live. Therefore I decided to get a Saarloos. And while I am waiting on my pup to become 8 weeks, I do try to get most possible info about how to properly train a Saarloos so it can be a nice company dog for me and dont get into any "accidents". Ahh and I didnt make the reservation "over night" it took like 2 weeks to find a breeder with wolfgrey pups for sale after a long search through the internet and asking many breeders who didnt have any litters or planned ones soon.

As for the situation of the wolfdogs in Norway, well I think that publicity can only make it better like it did in the UK (some other people do also share this view and for example the Norwegian SW breeder got a homepage where they tell about the SWs, so its wrong to say that every owner of SW in Norway tries to "hide"). But since people got different points of view regarding how to make the situation of SW safer in Norway and unban the CSV then it becomes fast something to argue about.

What I plan to do is to get the legalising of CSV on the list of things to be done by the political party that I am a member of, so they can put this case first in "Fremskritt" (the partys newspaper), then on the "landsmøte", eventually to be voted upon in the Storting. Without going to deep into politics (so I dont get banned again) I can say that FrP care very much about the freedom of the individual so this case of banning a breed and preventing people from owning it with no real reason of doing so will be something that they shall gladly try to solve when they get the proper knowledge about the case. I dont want to talk especially about politics here but since the law is connected with the politics I cant just skip them since changing the law requires political action. I hope the moderator will understand this and dont ban for talking about politics when trying to change a law.

I hope you all have a nice Christmas, and again I wish you all a happy new year!
