Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

- I'm sorry but I do not, for a second, believe the person saying that the huskies bred with wolves are dangerous dogs. I've had hybrids for years and the only negative thing about them is that they're extremely skittish.
We've dealt with lots of judgement from owning them. People have threatened to poison and shoot them. There are bad dogs in every breed, but no bad breeds. For years? Like, did your parents have them? Because you're 20, so I'm curious as to how long you personally have had them on your own? We have lots of young members here that know their stuff (Kristina, Jennet..totally calling you girls out, lol ), so I am curious and not trying to be snooty. With your young age, how many have you actually had experience with? A few wouldn't count. We had rottweilers my whole life growing up and I still wouldn't say I'm experienced with them...because due to the live span of certain dogs, we really only had 5. The thing is, though, wolf-hybrids aren't "breeds", they are not a purebred dog. http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/wolfhybred.htm And...another great link I've read: http://whitney05.hubpages.com/hub/wolf-hybrid With any "mutt" you have to be willing to accept all traits that could come along with the breeds the dog is made of. If you own wolf hybrids you have to be fully educated in wolf psychology...which is related but not at all exactly like dog psychology. A member here had his husky killed by a wolf-hybrid... a lady in Pennsylvania was killed by her pack of wolf-hybrids...as far as I'm concerned wolf-hybrids belong only with people who are devoted to studying and understanding wolves. You could get lucky and get a hybrid that's "mostly" dog, but there's no way to determine that. THAT'S what makes everyone leery. There is a great book written by a woman who adopted a Husky/Wolf hybrid. Her journey was far from glorious. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11026154-part-wild |
