    I do not think there is ANY way one can reputably breed wolf hybrids (like Glacier said)... and if there was, I don't think this breeder is anywhere near doing so. There is no mention of health testing on the website, and no mention of a real goal for their breeding operation. I just hope to GOD they screen homes very thoroughly.

    As far as wolf hybrids in general... I don't agree with producing them, and I wouldn't own one. I have met several, only one of which was a really nice, stable dog; and she was a low-content GSD x wolf rescued as a young puppy, by a very experienced trainer. I've met a few who were painfully, incredibly shy. I saw two in Petsmart the other day who the owner couldn't even get through the parking lot... they were choking themselves, trying to hide under cars. And I knew one who was a flat-out dangerous animal, who eventually almost killed a meterman.

    Our Petsmart doesn't allow wolves or hybrids in the store. Two of the trainers said they don't enforce it and have seen them in the store. A lot of people think my Layla is part wolf. To the best of my knowledge she has no wolf in her. A few have said she acts like a wolf. Really? She looks and acts like a dog to me.
    I don't believe in breeding or owning wolves. I love them, but they are wild animals, plain and simple.

    My BIL had a Wolf/Shepard mix, that he brought home from active duty down south. Tiko was a fabulous dog, but she definitely had some issues. She had a huge prey drive! she could not be near any small animal, especially cats! She had to be on a leash while outside, she could not be trusted off lead! If she broke loose, and took off, she would come home with a prize, one time her prize was a Fawn! Thankfully it was alive and Okay, and was able to be released. She was great with kids tho, and just adored them. treating them like her own. She passed away a few years ago, at the age of 15. Here are two pics I could find of her.
