L.A. County CA - Wolfdogs at the Park

Sir Allen · 15-08-2011, 21:04

I met a wonderful couple and their wolfdog yesterday at a dog park near my place. I was so happy because it's the first that I've seen a WD in the "flesh"."-). Again, many thanks to Jing and Yoshi. i hope to see you again.......soon!!

It was nice to meet you too.

I would put some photos you took but seems like I'm having problems doing it either by attachment or by inserting images.. it keeps saying I'm over my word limit. So I'll just link some here.

It was a fun meet up.. maybe soon we'll have three Vlcaks?

I really like the photo of the chihuahua (mix?), looking like it thinks it might somehow be in charge of Ghost. And Ghost, with the expression like "Um, really?"

So, did you find that the two dogs seemed to recognize that they were the same breed (interact more exclusively with eachother than other dogs at the park)? I have noticed (even with my own dogs, in my own pack), that my CSVs seem to be able to pick eachother out, and will often just ignore dogs of other breeds - like a CSV only club! But maybe it's only a fluke...

our pup lives with two little bitches under 10lbs.., he knows they aren't anything to be messed with...

Ron, Lex's owner, wondered the same thing whether they recognized each other as a breed. I'm not sure myself if they did or didn't but they did find that being annoying to one another was more tolerated than with other dogs. Things like jumping on one another, rolling, tripping, etc didn't get bad responses out of either of the dogs.

That's it, exactly! I get a quiet chuckle when people come to meet my dogs and bring their "energetic dog who would love another energetic dog as a companion" along to meet and greet. I don't know that other breeds are necessarily ready for the CSV in the way that their owners are expecting!

Kind of like dropping off an 8 year old energetic child into a professional rugby match!

I am so glad it finally happened

And yes, wolfdogs seem to recognize their relatives - even when they see (feel?) them from very far places

Ghost "face" expression is so funny - dark coat and light eyes allways makes them look a bit scary, so the name suits a lot

Sir Allen · 16-08-2011, 15:57

@Hanka
Yes, and am really very thankful to ALL OF YOU for helping me out to learn more about the "cousins" of my CZ PS German Shepherds.

@Vaiva
Finally met and experienced the other half of the "1955" breeding/experiment. Thanks for the "encouragement" to ASK.

Sincerely, I noticed that Spettro has two completely different behaviours when it comes to dogs.

Now that he's almost 11 months old, he's starting his asshole behaviour towards other dogs. He likes to imitate the Metro Golding Mayer lion -____-'.

Sometimes he would notice that he's bullying a girl and resume the playing, or a male is particularly nice and they play.

BUT when he sees a Vlcak... he starts to whine and cry! And he MUST go to him/her. We were in Stargard with God of War and his friends with Sheytan z Peronòwki: Sheytan is 13 months old. At first they argued a little, then decided that playing was far more interesting XD... He uses all his strength with Vlcaks while he is more delicate (as delicate as a Vlcak can be -____-') with other breeds.

soniakanavle · 23-08-2011, 08:52

Interesting idea, and one I have wondered as well, if CsV's KNOW another one when they see one. Flint, my 6 (almost 7!) year old CsV has worn out every German Shepherd, Akita, Newfoundland, Great Dane, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Karelian Bear Dog, McNab, Australian Shepherd and Labrador he has met. I would LOVE for him to meet up with a pack of other CsV's and let them play in their own style to their hearts content,

I wonder what a completely worn out wolfdog is like??

hanninadina · 23-08-2011, 13:23

I wonder, if you people did not know before taking a csw that these animals play always like other animals fight? And don´t you know that when they do mature they do not like to play with other dogs? Even with csw they will start to fight. Only female and male and male and female will go - but not always.
