2. Neuter or not? I was born in the States, but am of Polish descent, and, in Poland, we often hear that females especially need at least one litter in their lifetime. I'm not sure I believe this - it sounds like folk wisdom that doesn't bear scientific study. Also - are neutered males really much more calm than unneutered males? We neutered our cat when he was very young, because we weren't interested in breeding and I came to the conclusion that neutering would let him live a healthier and longer life with less chance of prostate cancer, etc. His energy level was definitely not affected, as some had warned me.

This is BIG legend: Female doesn´t need to make any litters and same whit males.

Male or female? While I don't necessarily believe there are huge behavioral differences inherent in gender - and that good or bad behavior mostly comes from training - I was curious as to what the more experienced members on the forum thought. We get various "ideas" about this - like females are better with children (which we don't have, but eventually will) or that males are more aggressive. Any truth to this?
I'm from Poland and I've never heard such nonsense about breeding a female at least once. My female is 5,5 and I've never wanted to become a breeder, nor am I going to ever breed on her, and she's fine. It's hard to generelize in case of CSVs because they are very individualist - have different temperaments, preferences, talents etc. I suggest you should meet several vlcaks, talk to their owners, and read about the breed, visit a few kennels, before you decide to invite a puppy to your home. As far as I know Warsaw vlckas owners meet more or less regularly with their dogs, why don't you join them and see what the dogs are like...

Rona,

I agree. All animals are quite the individualists. Do you have any idea where/when the Warsaw vlcak owners meet or someone in Warsaw I could get in touch with about that? Would you have any additional resources about CSVs besides this website, Wikipedia, etc? The information seems to be quite general, however, I find that to be the case with most information about most dog breeds (or cat breeds for that matter).

Also - Rona - is there a Polish breeder association for CSVs? We would probably give priority to a Polish breeder over another, simply because they are closer, and while there are quite a few on here I imagine that a Polish association would have more information about the Polish breeding programs. We are very impressed from what we have seen from Poland regarding CSVs on this website....

Thanks again everyone!

I've sent you a private message with e-mail address of the person who arranges most of the meetings.

Anula,

Thanks for the invitation. We are a bit busy until the end of March, but in April we really hope to come along for a walk.
