LYKOS WOLFALIKE COUNCIL OF AUSTRALIA INC
Our club was created in 2014 under the former name "Australian Lykos Development Project" with a Breed Standard, Stud Book and Code of Ethics. As soon as the blueprint was set for the breed, it commenced with the most stringent health testing of animals and the highest standards of breeding set by the club's Breed Advisors.
Our organisation incorporated early in 2021, with a larger group of dedicated committee members.
There are 5 breeders registered with our organisation who all work together in developing the Lykos Wolfalike breed.
As a club, we issue pedigree papers and certificates of registration for puppies bred by our registered breeders, sell breed related apparel and products, create member newsletters, host get togethers, pack walks, training sessions, competitions and exhibitions for our members. We foster a close community atmosphere and support all owners and their dogs.
Members have access to care and training advice, especially in our Lykos Dog Owners Group, with over 300 members who share the latest happenings and fun achievements.
We are against backyard breeding and breeding for financial gain. We like to help educate the public about these practices.
Our breeders working together as a team for the development of the breed, with the help and guidance of experienced mentors in breeding and behaviour, and our veterinary advocates and modern science for health and genetics, ensure that our breed under development is done in the best way possible.
Purpose
The aim, purpose and goal of the LWCA is to create an excellent family companion and highly trainable dog which physically resembles a wolf, while supporting our breeders in their goals of breeding for superior health and temperament.
1. To promote, protect and develop the Lykos / Lykos Wolfalike breed
2. To update the Code of Ethics and other rules and forms as necessary
3. To promote responsible dog ownership and breeding
4. To uphold and work within and towards the Lykos Breed Standard
5. To work towards registering the breed with an all breed (purebreed) canine registry
Our dogs and breeding program recognises the Lykos Wolfalike as the first and only legitimate wolf-look-a-like/wolfalike breeding program of its kind in Australia.
