Welcome to EWA

We are a German-speaking association that specialises in promoting breeding programmes for wolfdogs and wolfalikes and serving as a contact point for all questions and information relating to keeping and living together.
Our main focus is on ethics, health and a manageable temperament.
In a scene where there are no standardised associations or registers for wolfdogs or wolfalikes, the EWA strives to set a milestone in the breeding and promotion of wolf-like dogs.

Every wolf-like dog is welcome here, regardless of breed mix, colour, size or wolf percentage.
Together we create a community in which the character and health of the animals, as well as the exchange between our members, take centre stage.
The diversity of our members is of course just as important to us: whether you are a breeder, owner or simply interested – welcome to EWA!

Our members not only benefit from a wide range of information about wolfdogs and wolfalikes, but also from exclusive access to our extensive database, exciting seminars and various tools.
We see ourselves not only as an association, but also as a lively community that promotes the exchange of experiences, organises meetings and is there to help you in all situations.

What we offer

Ethics

Our statute forms the foundation for our actions and ensures that we always act in the best interests of our dogs.

Our principles are set out in our Code of Ethics and are binding for all members.
They guarantee responsible husbandry and breeding that places the welfare of our dogs at the centre.

The EWA breeding regulations set clear guidelines that promote responsible breeding practices and maintain genetic diversity.

Knowledge

Our seminars offer in-depth insights into genetic principles and the latest research findings to provide breeders and owners with valuable knowledge.

Our database not only has a lot of information, but also various useful tools to help you better understand genetic predispositions and make breeding decisions on a sound basis.

In our blog, experienced members share their knowledge and experiences about wolfdogs, wolfalikes, genetics and much more.

Exchange

Join our WhatsApp Community or the Facebook Group to talk to other members about wolfdogs or wolfalikes.

Take part in our meet ups and walks to get to know other EWA members and their dogs and have a great time together.

Follow us on our social media channels to stay up to date and take part in the lively discussion in our community.

The continuous exchange within our community strengthens our shared knowledge and helps us to develop the best methods for preserving health and genetic diversity in our dogs.
