Care

Temperament

The temperament of Wolf Dogs is one of a fierce loyalty more than anything else. They will feel protective of their owner at all times, even when they are not in any apparent danger. They will not do too well with smaller animals or young children as they do have a few wolfish instincts.

Training

Training for the Wolf Dog needs to start early and continue on through their lives with constantly reminding them of what they've learned. You don't need to be too mean, but you need to make sure that they know when they've done something good, and you know when they've done something bad.
