TEMPERAMENT
Generally wolf dogs are easy to house break, anywhere from 2 days to 2 weeks from the reports we get back. Our puppy packets include a training sheet on how to teach them not to chew on anything that doesn’t belong to them, which we have had excellent success for the last 25 years. A wolf’s brain is larger than a dog’s, which gives you more to work with !! HOWEVER, because of the added intelligence they can be very mischievous! We have had reports back of these guys turning the TV on and off, changing the channels to what THEY want to watch (which is usually the National Geographic channel), opening doors. And of course finding where you hide their treats and getting them out – is kids play. One of our females will sit in the driver seat of the car when you get out, and if she thinks you’ve been in the store too long or that you’ve stood there and talked to that person long enough, she will start blowing the car horn!
They are very intuitive and I swear can read your mind. They have proved this on several occasions, and I think that’s what we love so much about them. You can achieve a deeper level of communication and bonding with them that just isn’t possible with a normal dog. THEY TRULY DO BECOME YOUR BEST FRIEND.
You can raise them with anything from guinea pigs to horses and they will get along just fine. Most of our customers have cats – with no problems at all, however there has been one pet rabbit mishap (maybe too much like food?)
You must have a sense of humor to own a wolf hybrid! They like to steal things from you and hide them! Fortunately as a rule they use the same hiding place…
