Yes, I was thinking about same thing. This subject has been brought up somewhere else in this forum. Someone said that breed name must be the same as english breed name given when breed was registered with FCI. But I am not sure, I will have look inyo registration forms once I'll get back to home. You want "czechoslovakian Vlcak " or "ceskoslovensky Vlcak"?

I've just has a wee look at some of the paperwork we have for Shadow and it seems the FCI name is Ceskoslovensky Vlcak. That is how it is listed on her pedigree, the pups' pedigrees and her, newly arrived - 10 mins ago - CIE Title Certificate (sorry to boast, but I'm a proud mummy at the moment )

It would seem it is us native English speakers who must have changed the name to something easier for us at some point in the past

Prefer vlcak a lot more than wolfdog. I found out it is quite common whenever I say "wolfdog" people get a bit scared "wolfdog" appeals also more to people who would like to have wolfdog not for right reasons.
