The Delusions of a Troll or the Internet as a Good Servant but a Bad Master.
My breeding station has owned and managed its website for several decades. It is a modest site, but with a wealth of text and almost 20.000 photos in the gallery alone. I have been trying to document my work for several years, even though I don't particularly enjoy it. I am not a technical type or an internet maniac who is willing to spend more time in the virtual world than is absolutely necessary to document my hobby. Dogs are a hobby for me, but it requires a lot of physical work and time. In addition to physical work, there is also mental work involved, because I only enjoy real live dogs, and as such you have to really work with them. Thinking about their behavior, raising them when they are young, caring for them when they are old and ill... And you simply can't do that from a computer. Nor can you do it with a cell phone in your hand, or at least not very well.
On March 29, 1986 "Alina" Asta z Tondova was born, my first female Czechoslovakian Wolfdog registered in the ČSHPK registry under number 443/86. At that time, I found an advertisement in the magazine Pes přítel člověka (Dog, Man's Best Friend): "Looking for an owner for a puppy from an experimental cross between a wolf and a dog".

So, it has been 40 years since the Czechoslovakian Wolfdog entered my life. The years are passing, but my passion and love for these dogs remains. “Čévéčka” as they are called, are inseparable from me and belong to me like trees belong in a forest or water belongs in a riverbed. I am happy with them in the real world, not in the virtual world of the internet. I cannot imagine being without them or hurting them in any way; I will simply live out my life with these dogs.
I have experienced so much, and I am still passionate about these dogs. Over the years, I have often encountered misunderstanding from other dog trainers and gossip from people who do not know these dogs. That leaves me completely stone-cold, with a slight smile on my face. What do they know about it?
When I used to go to training sessions, I would sometimes hear "crossbreed", a dog that will never be recognized because it is actually just a "ruined German Shepherd".
Despite all the naysayers, recognition was received and today the Czechoslovakian Wolfdog, as another FCI breed, is bred all over the world. It is the merit of all the breeders whose dogs appear in the pedigrees of these animals to this day.
Every single breeder who has bred puppies, returned them to breeding, and does not care solely about selling puppies is extremely valuable to the breed. Only time will tell what each dog has given to the breed and what they have taken away. It is not all sunshine and roses; dog breeding is hard work.
Today, thanks to the internet, we have many "experts" who are harming Czechoslovakian Wolfdogs. They divide this breeder’s community and they are no longer owners of other dog breeds; unfortunately, they are within our own breed. Cyber fanatics longing for virtual power in their desire to "brainwash someone" with their nonsense.
They create nonsense cases, which they constantly bring up, twisting historical facts and meeting minutes. They keep repeating their lies over and over again in the hope that a lie repeated a hundred times will become the truth. Today, the internet environment and social networks serve this purpose perfectly. Long-term slander will never disappear from the internet.
For me personally, Facebook and other social networks are just a sewer where every frustrated individual who is dissatisfied with their life dumps their delusions. They have their audience and authors who write essays that are eagerly translated into other languages. They egg each other on and talk about the "horrors of Czechoslovakian Wolfdog breeding". One such internet troll is Margo Peron from Poland. She has not attended any events in the Czech Republic for many years, and if you were to surprise her with a visit, you would probably be very surprised by the state and conditions in which her dogs live. There isn't much time for anything else with her "writing career".
I'm not on Facebook, but some friends and colleagues send me things from time to time.
I think that when Margo wakes up in the morning and opens her eyes, she sees the name "Soukupová" written in red letters in front of her; because she is to blame for everything, even the earthquake in Mexico. She must see red and experience such frustration and paranoia that it would otherwise be impossible for her to use the name "Soukupová" so many times in one text and for so many years. It's really ridiculous, but it essentially points to a serious obsession, and I actually feel sorry for her. I guess she's really gone crazy in the years since I've seen her. She writes posts herself and then responds to them herself with anonymous comments :-( The absurdity is compounded by the fact that she started her own breeding based on Soukupová's dogs (Jolly and Merry Bell z Molu Es), and these two females can easily be traced in today's Czechoslovakian Wolfdog pedigrees. Perhaps she is not very happy in her personal life, and I believe that the people around her cannot be happy either, as her obsession with Soukupová must be annoying to everyone.
Since I am not interested in her opinions at all, I have beautiful dogs and a happy life, I couldn’t care less about Margo.
But that's not the case. The worst thing, apart from it being a tragedy for one person, is that she has fundamentally damaged and continues to damage our Czechoslovakian Wolfdog breed with her fake database on wolfdog.org and absurd theories on Facebook!
No one has ever damaged our breed in modern history as much as the Polish individual Margo Peron. No crossbreed, even if it got into a breeding program, could ever damage the breed as much as she did! We have a standard, and undesirable genes could be selected out. That's what dog breeding is all about, selection! In the Czech Republic, we don't have any crossbreeds, as she claims, so we don't have to select anything!
Where would such a quantity come from? I have to see a good and typical dog. Not create stupid and damaging theories about why not to use a dog or buy a puppy. Margo also questions the genetic DNA and parentage analyses of all reputable laboratories around the world, including American Embark tests. She questions the FCI stud books and disparages the work of a huge number of breeders. She is the only one who knows who has the right "pure" Czechoslovakian Wolfdog.
If Margo ever asks for any genetic material from any of our dogs and comes to pick it up in person, we will be happy to give it to her, or she can collect it herself from our wonderful dogs! She can then have it tested in any laboratory she wants and invest her own money into the research.
It's so easy to smear someone without any evidence these days and let them dig themselves out of that pile of online dirt however they want.
(The ongoing Winter Olympics and athletes disconnecting from social networks reminded me of the filth of this virtual environment. Behind a keyboard, in the warmth of their homes and 20 kilos overweight, they criticize, slander, and play sports :-( )

Note: I feel sorry for today's children and young people who are growing up with cell phones in their hands on social networks and in a virtual environment where lies and illusions become truth, where cyberbullying flourishes, which influences and distorts the minds and lives of young people.
