Margo,
This is a good point,most of the UK interest in ther CZW is for totally the wrong reason and few actually have any idea of the working capability of the breed.
Without doubt there will be those who would use the CZW to introduce wolf genetics into other breeds,if it has not already been done and I am told that this has been done in europe with the GSD,this should not be the reason to own the CZW,they are a wonderful working dog in their own right and this has been my argument with DEFRA although they choose not to listen,their first comment in their replies is "If you currently own a wolf hybrid then you need to etc)which shows just how little knowledge or understanding they actually have.
The CZW is the result of careful breeding and selection not just another hybrid of unknown origin.
I have been trying to convince the police to try one because of the scenting ability but as usual political reasons prevent it.
