"Ideal" Work to Test CsV?

I've been thinking a lot about the future of the CsV, particularly in the US since the breed is still very new here. Not being one to jump the gun, since I've discovered the CsV I've been doing as much research as possible (mainly in these forums!) into the history of the breed and its correct, ideal temperament and functionality in an effort to discover what my own, personal goals would be with the dog, and possible breeding, I would have in the future. I know I probably (still) have a long way to go before I'm in a position to start establishing the breed in the US, but in the mean time I want to hash out my opinions and ethics for breeding the "perfect" CsV.

I personally feel that in addition to confirmation, it is VITAL to the soundness of a working breed for the dogs to be tested in that work in order to maintain the proper working character and structure. This is where I feel I've hit a bit of a wall and am asking all of you for your personal input and goals!

So, as far as the history of the breed is concerned, the CsV was a border patrol dog that was bred for tracking and guarding work without the aid of a human handler. For this, one would need a dog that would not only function well as a tracker, guarder, and have high endurance both physically and for the elements, but who would also be able to make up its own mind as to a course of action without the use of a handler giving instructions. Here is where I'm really stumped!

It's a given that endurance work and tracking work would be great to test the CsV in regards to its original function. However, when it comes to protection/guard sports, I honestly can't see the temperament needed to compete being what you would want in a CsV. You want your dog to be able to make up its own mind, not just wait for your commands. Honestly, I feel that's what GSDs are for! I would see the "typical" CsV temperament being that of a dog who is smart and easily learns commands, but who will "choose" when and how to act on them, more akin to a husky's temperament than a GSD's.

Coming to this conclusion, how would one encourage the natural guarding instincts of the CsV safely? I mean, I would think I would want a dog with natural guarding instincts, but if I "encourage" those behaviors, and the dog "decides" for himself when to act on those instincts, doesn't that create the possibility of a dangerous dog? And if I were to choose a dog that is more apt to following commands rather than thinking for himself, isn't that moving away from an ideal CsV temperament?

As you can see, I'm stuck in a total paradox! This is why I want to ask all of your opinions! How do you personally test your dogs? If you were to pick the "ideal" titles for a CsV to earn (in your own, personal opinion) what would they be? If you were to create a test geared specifically towards the CsV (similar to how Schutzhund was created for GSDs) what would the test contain?

I'm not looking for people to argue about whether one form of test is above another, but rather I'd like to take an inventory on everyone's personal stances on the subject, since all of you are so very familiar with CsVs! Thank you!!
