Limitation of the size

I have many bonitation cards from 80's up to today, all of them considering 70+cm males and 68+cm females (80's).

Hanka and I (both Czech breeders), we disagree with you in what you wrote about sizes (proportions, dimorfism, what you wrote about indexes); that's all.

You have your right for your opinion, of course.
But many people here could be interested in different opinion from CZ.

I found this: http://www.wolfdog.org/forum/showpos...3&postcount=20 It is an old message but it seems very serious to me.

i see photos of your dogs from you kennel and i think czech breeder have own world and other thinking. i think wolfdogs must be wolfish but czech dogs are zero wolf. maybe some but most are not. you say big dogs are nice and big females too but for me you wrong. i see some female form you kennel and i see no wolf and for me are not female but male in look. and very much heavy




i not see wolf and not see female. you thinki is good breeding so big and different dogs. I not see anyfemale in my country which is so much heavy and other not-wolf in look

One wolf killed in Romania was recorded to have weighed 72 kilograms (158 pounds).[17] In Italian wolves, excepting the tail, body length ranges between 110–148 cm, while shoulder height is 50–70 cm. Males weigh between 25–35 kg (55-77 lbs) and rarely 45 kg (99 lbs).[18]
