This is typical when a breed gets banned from a country - the existing dogs are not put down but rather they are all sterilized and both breeding and importing is forbidden. Eventually the breed dies out and there are no dogs of that kind to be found in the country. This is the situtation for CSW in both Sweden and Norway. The UK is slightly different, because you CAN have wolfdogs there, but they fall under the Dangerous and Wild animals regulations.

So... yes there are some wolfdogs in Sweden but... they are not really allowed in Sweden.

The fact that there is a show which allows CSW in Sweden is very encouraging because it will allow owners and breeders to (hopefully) show the breed how it really is, and help to convince the authorities that the restrictions on the CSW are unfounded.
then if the breeder will have a certificate of consevacionist Breeder or certifyd of the Organization that takes care of the wild animals, this person can breed CzWs.
if this will be possible, cannot be considered that the government wants the extinguishing of the breed.
Existing CzWs there, it would not be of these owners (or who knows breeders of other countries) if to join and to prove that the breed is the the opposite of that the government thinks?
