Re: Missing Wolf


Wolf and dog behaviour totally different, their personalitys totally different, they are totally different. It's why all the wolf hybrid fad went so drastically wrong, the waryness and "wild streak" of the wolf combined with the confident of the dog-BAD mix, proved many times over. Would stand to reason it'd be similar with a domesticated wolf as it would have its natural traits yet domestic confidence. Bad idea in many eyes.

Re: Missing Wolf


I actually just came over to post the link for you guys to have a look at, not childish really just getting some other people's views as you seem very naive on this despite me trying to explain why a wolf is different from a dog, how is that childish? It's not a secret. It's just a discussion as this is a doggy subject and this forum is predominantly cat people, jeez...

I had a part feral cat, our tabs, and although she was lovely pet she was never like my other cats.

Dogs are very very diluted compared to a wolf. A wolf can be tamed and trained, but it will always be wild and it's instincts will always be so very much stronger than that of a pet dog's and those instincts are hunt and kill.

I mentioned Dogsey because a lot of them over there are very knowledgeable on dogs and behaviour and would probably be able to explain things better than me on my own.

Owning a wolf imo is comparable to owning any kind of wild cat. People own wild cats all over the world, especially the smaller cats such as servals. Would you own a serval?
Have to say I agree wholeheartedly with you Random...

Re: Missing Wolf


This is a bad example...

As they are cat people, why don't you ask them if they would have a tiger as a pet? Apart from a bigger litter tray surely if a wolf is no different to a dog a tiger is no different to a cat?

There is not a HUGE physical difference in a wolf and huskie...
But a huge difference in a wee lovely moggie and a tiger Poor arguement SORRY!!!!!

And you only posted link, cos I caught ya first lol....

You know my type? You don't know me at all, if you did you'd know that all I do on these forums is try and help people, I have been a member of both forums for a number of years and I know the people on Dosgey may be able to explain the subject better to you as clearly think I am full of crap and I didn't want you sounding ridiculous professing you know all about wolves and huskies when it's clear you know very little as you can't even tell them apart. Sorry for trying to help you understand, I really am.

The only reason I asked was to show you what they said, that discussion has been done time and time again over the years, if you do a quick search you can see for yourself DUH!
