Wolves are VERY intelligent and need to be watched and treated like children because they can get into a lot of trouble, ie opening locked doors, stealing your food, digging holes in your yard to den in, jumping your fence, killing the neighborhood cats and small dogs, intimidating you with their behavior, etc. They WILL run your house if you don't know how to handle them. Please do your research before you buy a hybrid. They are beautiful animals that are NOT to be taken lightly. I LOVE wolves and have researched about them for years before I owned one. The wolf is my spirit animal and I respect them entirely. I also volunteer at a Wolf Research and Hybrid Rescue facility near my home. Those poor souls (wolves) there were abused at the hands of inexperienced and ignorant hybrid owners. Even though they know they will no longer be abused and will be cared for with love and concern at the facilty, it still takes years before they will trust ANYONE again for anything. It really makes me angry that they have had to suffer like that. I think it's really great that you're interested, but PLEASE research, research and research before you buy.

EDIT: I can PM you with the site if you're interested.


It's ok at this time I'm not in the position to buy a new set of rota slips let alone buying a wolf. lol I don't even know where to find one at to be honest haha, plus i'm starting college in the fall etc so it won't be for some years if ever but I still think they're the all around pimps of the animal world.. thanks for the info and best of luck with the shelter that sounds like a lot of fun..
