Hi AraiNI and Vicky... (Vicky, I think I tried to send a message a while back, but I have less than the best internet here, so I think I lost the reply while trying to send it.) I have been exposed to CsVs for the last 3 years, and I now have 4 of them (and 2 mutts). I want to see these wonderful animals in America, but like you mentioned earlier (about the puppy mills) I want to be sure they are the the best of hands. Some day (hopefully in about 2 years) I will start breeding them in Texas. I am very eager to see CsVs in our working dog community. This breed is easy to fall in love with, but at the same time, it is not like any dog you've ever had before.... with that being said, I've found, they are all different within themselves as well.
-My first "Ecaterina"

(Estia dell Olimpalus) is very dominant with other dogs, but easily accepts me as her alpha. She doesn't like to be left alone (who does) and ate my seatbelts and window seals in my truck the day I went to pick up "Piter".
-My second "Piter"

(Piter priv-Panicucci) is very calm (for the breed), docile to an extent, goofy, clumsy, and must 'carefully' jump on you to show his affection (note: I did my best to train him not to jump because I don't like it, but I'm beginning to think it is a lost cause with CsVs), and he likes to chew on ears while licking inside of them. And to top it off! He CAN be TRUSTED to NOT shred the interior of a car on a road trip!!!!
-My third, "Elsa" (priv - Bilotti)

, COMPLETE PSYCHOPATH!. Houdini would be amazed! She can escape anything (so far). Eats couches via broken remains of kennel vent, I put her in my truck for about 30 seconds to race in to use the restroom before a vet run, I came back....Seat belts were totally finished off as well as my headrests to both seats.. She is the most wolfish of them all (and possibly the prettiest).. She is still rather new to me, and I believe these negative issues will dissipate with work and time.
-My fourth ( as of Wednesday) "Soselo"

(Garm -Braterswo Wilcakow) Is only 9 weeks old, can climb very well, is very attentive, plays with the big dogs, and howls like a miniature wolf when kennelled up. He loves snow, and "talking". the sounds he makes are so awesome and yet interesting & sometimes creepy (almost sounds humanish).

I just returned from a road trip to Poland to buy Soselo. On my way (there and back), I stopped in Prague, Berlin, Warsaw, Krakow (Auschwitz Museum), Bratislava and Venice. I finally had a chance to let Piter play in the snow for the first - 60th time. I just wanted to share my recent voyage with everyone. I sincerely recommend vacationing to Central Europe. Warsaw has some big malls, but all of these places would be more convenient using public transportation... Parking was a pain in Prague!

BACK ON TRACK - I would like to stay in touch with Americans honestly interested in CsVs. At this moment, all I have is the site I made www.americanikennels.com as contact info. In the future I plan to obtain the license and everything else required to operate a dog hotel for people who want the best place for thier furry family members to stay when they go on vacation.
