European Wolfdogs

As far as the csv is concerned if I remember correctly they do not like the breed. Don't have much interest in the breed either

I wonder how it's possible to get EUROPEAN wolfdogs from AMERICAN wolfdogs. Miraculous metamorphosis?

Ok, the black and white wolfdogs are really beautiful, though as Rona said not quite European

, but the rest of the pack? The female looks like a vlcak, though I guess not so wolfish as they would like her to be and the male looks like some sort of variation on saarloos. I don't get it

but their web site is awesome

No I think the name "European wolfdog" suggests they're trying to market wolfdogs to people from Europe (and be the go-to breeder of wolfdogs in Europe) and not to name the "breed". In the USA they are easy to obtain, now I guess they'll be easy to obtain here also. The two bloodlines serve to differentiate the product - larger american wolfdogs being more exotic and probably higher priced than the european wolfdog that is smaller.

Yes, and their european wolfdogs are not as wolfish looking as their american

a little confused since they seem to be breeding mixes of the two types?

I suggest elephants. Even more exotic and much bigger

Good one

Hahaha, then they would be called European elephants, and people would be confused and complain - there is no elephants in Europe!

hehe

As far as the 2 bloodlines go, for now it seems they are not planning to mix them (only breed american type with other american type wolfdogs etc.), so the american and european "look" stay different, ...makes more sense.
