Text Box: Text Box: Wolfdogs Text Box: A canis lupus is a wolf. A canis lupus familiaritis is a domestic dog. A wolfdog is a cross between a canis lupus and a canis lupus familiaritis. What does the above information mean? Simply put, A wolf that has been bred to a dog of known ancestry is a wolfdog. Or, a breeder has taken a wolf and bred the wolf to a specific breed of dog to produce offspring with similar characteristics to that of it’s parents. For example: A Timber Wolf bred to an Alaskan Malamute, produces: Wolf/Malamute puppies. The offspring from this mating would be called 50/50. Or: A 50/50 Timber Wolf X Malamute bred to a 75/25 Timber Wolf X Malamute produces: Very high content offspring and is considered close to 100% wolf but is still called a wolfdog as it does have Malamute ancestry in addition to the wolf ancestry. Or: A 98% Timber Wolf X Malamute bred to a 100% Siberian Husky produces: Wolf/Husky puppies. The offspring from this mating would be called 50/50. The million dollar question: WHY DO YOU (K-9 PINES) choose to work with Wolfdogs? We feel wolves and wolfdogs are a huge asset to the domestic dog and our breeding program. Beauty, brains, and trainability are the type of wolfdogs we choose to work with. We are very in tuned to the wolfdogs we have and feel very strongly when bred to certain other wolfdogs will produce mentally and physically sound pets. Many people do not realize that the breed of dog they have now has the wolf breed in it’s ancestry. Up until the early 1900’s the German Shepherd and the Nordic sled dog breeds were still using the wolf as apart of their breeding program. They were used to increase the gene pool, of existing kennels so they would not breed themselves into a corner and produce mentally and physically unstable dogs. What you will find here is that we choose to place lower content wolfdogs in pet homes. We take our high content wolfdogs and breed them to other recognized registered breeds of dogs. We work with German Shepherd/Wolfdogs and Siberian Husky/Wolfdogs.
