Camouflage quality of vlcak coat

Tollers are lovely, however they are an opposite breed to vlcaks as far as camouflage against the environment is concerned.:) At least unless it is deep autumn :rock_3. If you let both dogs run unleashed the toller could most of the year act as indicator as to where your vlcak is :p:lol:https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_b...2030%20005.jpg

BTW we have a thread on the Polish forum where people send photos showing how fantastically the coat of vlcaks matched the environment. The coat seems to act like a mirror.

Even man-made brick walls are good for hiding a CsV :P

Nice picture, "Martab"!

Hi Martab -

i really like this picture !

It´s proofing that originally obviously Mr. Karel Hartl not only used wolves for breeding but also ( or may be mainly ??) wild boar....:sooo_hapy

Ps: My Cwd also likes this kind of "natural perfume" ...cheerio to all !

Best greetings from Germany , Uli alias Silvester

Very fine , almost professional made pictures are posted here !

Ok, mine are of much poorer quality - but they also show the camouflage of coat- colour against the natural background.

Nice weekend to all !

Bye, Silvester

Great picture of camouflage !

Hey Vaiva ! - I like this photo. Very good example for camouflage - the dog is almost invisible, a little of course also because of the shadows of the tree. But the colour of coat is just exactly the same like the colour of natural background.

The photos remind me this picture:

I can not remember now the exact number of wolves you have to find here, but guess it is 20 :)

Hi Silvester, thank you.

Photography is not really my field, those were just lucky shots.

There are a few more in River's gallery:

Another searching - picture...can you see the dog ?

One stops wondering why it's so hard to meet a wolf, though there are over 600 of them in Poland. 8)

Great picture Rona, it's amazing how our eyes can 'ignore' things and tell the brain they are something else...

Incredible photos, thanks for sharing!

WOW :shock:

Vlcak and beagle in snow :)

I love watching them play in the snow :) But it still hasn't reached us properly :( Maybe next week...

Well Done Leila - I cannot see your dog in the first photo:p Can you give me a clue, please ;)

There is she ;-) She is darker in colour

Thanks! I thought that had to be her, but still couldn't see her right :oops:

...sometimes you need a reddish friend for a complete camuflage of a reddish dog!

PS: this image is cruelty free, the hen is happily alive and safe!

Ok Martab , I believe you - but with my dog this would end with a tasty chicken- mincemeat after maximum two seconds...:evillaugh:ffod !

Best greetings to all

Silvester

Just noticed this thread, so I thought that I'd post a few "camouflage quality of the CSW fur" pictures of almost 15 weeks old Styx taken today:

Hihihi, where is a vlcak there? ;)
