Wilk/Hamlet --- Radov Dvor --- Killed by Wilczy Duch kennel?!

[Rona]

Just to update the topic: Hamlet (Wilk) was found stray in the woods in central Poland. He was in a poor condition and walked with a limp. Nobody knew how long he had lived on his own, neither anybody claimed him back
The person who spotted him managed to convince the dog to approach her. He kept visiting her home and eventually stayed with her and her family. The vet read his chip number and only then his identity was disovered. X-rays showed that a pellet was disturbing the movement of Hamlet's hip. (Seems somebody tried to shoot him). Funds were raised for his operation which eased his movement and probably relieved pain. Later he was castrated and now seems to be a happy and joyful dog.

The person who offered him a temporary home advertised him for adoption, but if no good home is found she declared she'd keep him. He's now about 6,5 years old and seems a really nice male.

Whatever happens to him in the future, lets hope that the second part of Hamlet's life will be happy!

Thank you for your Information Rona!
What a Story. I will really try hard to find someone for him in Germany, where he can live his second part of his life in peace and well cared.
I followed him since he was Young.
Does he Need a second dog for companionship? Is he shy or ok with strangers? What about secure high escaped prove fences? Does he Need them.
Would be easier for me to find a good home, if I could get answers to my question, so that I will find a real good home for him.

I'm afraid I don't know answers to your questions. At present he lives as a family dog, with two white Swiss sheperd females and a male WSS puppy and he doesn't seem to want to escape - he sleeps in a shack outside, but enters the house on demand. I suppose if he's taken his temperament after his double grandpa (Iran ZO), he must have a really nice personality. (BTW From what I've heard Iran is 15 now, he's still is interested in females and his human fan club has significantly increased over the last few years. )

Until Hamlet was castrated lots of people from several countries wanted to adopt him, but the number has dropped close to zero after the castration. Partly, becuase breeders with bigger vclak packs were afraid their dogs might not accept a castrated one, partly, because some hoped they might have registered him as stud and have "unique litters" .

I passed the link to the person who is in charge of Hamlet and if she is interested in your kind offer I suppose she'll contact you.

After all he had gone through I belive Hamlet/Wilk appreciates a good friendly home and ...deserves it, like any dog does.

I think interesting is the back door... unfortunately as far I know there were also "normal" people (not breders) interested in him. Nobody get Hamlet due to the lies told by Grzegorz. The problem is the new owner of Hamlet is a very big friend of the owner of Czambor - mendioned Grzegorz.... a person non grata by most (if not all) Polish breeders... and a big promotor of Czechoslovakian Shepherd who is ENVY about every Czechoslovakian Wolfdog. He throws mud at every typical Wolfdog (famous are his stories about genetic faults invented by him )
Because of it first Grzegorz tried to show that Hamlet is a degenerate (because of the pedigree) - he is a ingorant when it comes to genetics. I'm almost sure he thinks that inbreed is a infectious disease (ok, I exaggerate a little ). Later he convinced Beata to castrate Hamlet although we write about the future problems with acceptance of castrated dogs...

At the moment Rona is right - nobody is interested to adopt Hamlet because all people who wrote something are attacked by Grzegorz on a very bad way. Also the breeders do not want to help because theiy do not want to be involved in any addoption ruled by Grzegorz... No wonder: one of my dogs was "adopted" by him and his friend. The dog was put down without my knowledge.
The second adoption had better end but much worsed process. After it Grzegorz slandered all people and breeders who helped to save the live of Car and promoted himself as hero...

"nobody is interested to adopt Hamlet because all people who wrote something are attacked by Grzegorz on a very bad way. "

Haha, I've blocked the guy on fb so I don't see what role he has played in the Hamletgate. To be honest, I'm not even interested .

IMO the person who is now in charge of Hamlet is an experienced dog owner, has her own judgement of the situation and on having listened to all advice and suggestions, will select the best home available I don't think the owner of Czambor has anything to say in this case

He never has ANYTHING (serious and sensible) to say but he says..
But as long as Grzegorz will humiliate every person who is interesed in adoption of Hamlet the dog will never find any new home. Because adopting Hamlet you will also "adopt" Grzegorz....
