Most people are afraid of either wolves or wolfdogs, but not me or my pit bulls. In fact, we have two wolfdogs at the dog park who are our BFFs. One is a large female who was bigger than either of my pit bulls. She was an unnaturally beautiful German Shepherd mix with a graceful walk and serene demeanor. Her owners named her after Arya Stark from Game of Thrones. My pit bulls were head-over-heels in love with her and flirted with her obsessively. They even ran together from one side of the park to the other, but she always left my pit bulls in the dust. The other wolfdog we see more often and he was just as beautiful as Arya. His name is Odin after the Viking god and All-Father. Odin is just as big as Arya except he is white as snow with golden amber eyes that are filled with ancient wisdom and spirit. Odin loves getting attention and he wrestles with my pit bulls all the time while also being a referee when other dogs are playing. One time I was sweet talking Odin while hugging him and he got so excited that he jumped up to kiss me and ended up squishing his nose against mine. I got into a sneezing fit for an hour. Overall, my pit bulls and I love wolfdogs with complete passion and we look forward to seeing our BFFs on our next visit to the park.

They sound like nice animals. I happen to LOVE wolves. The thing you need to keep in mind with hybrids is that they are part wolf, and wolves are not domestic animals. They think and act differently than a dog. You could end up with a great pet like your friends have, or you can end up with an animal who constantly challenges for dominance. (Other dogs and humans.) That’s a roulette game I’m not willing to play, especially if children are involved.
They just look so majestic…I would love to see them in the wild. Gorgeous, tough, resilient and sadly much maligned creatures. The exact opposite (save for gorgeous) of my Labrador………
