Default FW: Norwegian proposal of banning FCI approved wolfdog breed

My "away-from-home" html-based mail reader obviously doesn't seem to like me
:-)

I do not mean to be hostile. I have watched the 'wolfdog world' for years
in the US and now I see that the very same problems are occurring outside
of the US even though you guys have real breeds! This is very bad.
Thanks :-)
And yes, I have viewed some US wolfdog pages on the net for some years, and
as you say, the very same problems are now showing here. Unfortunately.

When ever I point out the obvious solution to me (GET RID OF THE WORD WOLF
IN ALL DOG BREEDS NOW AND IN THE FUTURE) I am usually met by hostility.
By principle I do agree. On the other hand: why disguise a breed by renaming
it to hide its origin? But in principle I do agree.

[About education and ignorance]
In my humble opinon: The level of education is of no importance when you mind
is made up to dislike something, wether it is your neighbor, your boss or i.e.
a wolf :-)

Quote:
It is very obvious also to me that if people are hostile to wolves they are
also going to be hostile to any breed that is called a 'wolf something',
yet so many people seem surprised and self-righteous about their superior
understanding of relationship of wolves to wolfdogs to hybrids to breeds.
It does not matter what is TRUE, only hysteria sells news and the word wolf
will ALWAYS bring hysteria. It has happened at many places on earth
and many times in history.
Again: I truly do agree - but - will renaming the wolf stop people from
frightening an animal named "flow" if it appears as an excact copy of a wolf?

That is my opinion and where I am coming from. Feel free to ask any
more questions you want.
I'll sure do that. Thank you :-).
