Czechoslovakian Wolfodg

Other names : Cesky Vlcak

Native country : Czech Republic

History

In 1955, German Shepherds and Carpathian wolves were crossed in Czechoslovakia. In 1965, a project to selectively breed this animal was undertaken in the hope of combining the best of the wolf and the dog. In 1982, the Czechoslovakian Wolfdog was recognized as a national breed by the Czechoslovakian Committee of Breeder Associations. In 1994, the FCI recognized the breed. A few Ceskoslovensky Vlcak have been introduced in France since that time.

Description

This eager, extremely active dog has great endurance and quick reflexes. He is bold and courageous. While he is exceptionally loyal to his owner, he is distant and wary around strangers (men in particular). His sense of smell is considerably more developed than that of most dogs. With his powers of dissuasion, perhaps this breed should be trained as a guard and defense dog.

Advice

This Wolfdog should be owned only by individuals who have an excellent understanding of animal behavior.
