I Take My Wolfdog On Epic Adventures Because I Hate To See Dogs Locked Away

He does not have a wolf dog, and he's going to encourage people to get wolf dogs if he misrepresents Loki like that.

No room here for negative comments. I wouldn't mind mind being Loki and having this guy be my best human friend

Its not a wolf dog. It's a husky or malamute or cross. You would never let a hybrid (aka wolfdog) off leash like this, nor would it be so gregarious. Hybrids are extremely shy animals, dangerous, and should never be kept as pets.

wolfdog IS a breed, besides sarloos there's czechoslovakian wolfdog, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czechoslovakian_Wolfdog

I think it's a Malamute-Husky mix, because of the blue eye

Everyone saying they owned big, cuddly, well-mannered wolf "hybrids" (the correct term used by professionals and enthusiasts is Wolfdog, as "hybrid" suggests separate species, which they are not) has likely been swindled into believing those dogs were something they weren't. It's extremely common for people to be sold variations of Malamute, Siberian, GSD or Inuit dogs as "Wolfdogs". It is much less common to actually own one. Out of all the photos I've seen of people boasting about owning one, only a select few had any apparent wolf lineage. It doesn't mean that people should cherish those dogs any less. They're still special... But you shouldn't be parading them around as something they're not. It's dangerous for you (you have the potential to be fined without a permit) and dangerous for your dog (who will likely be euthanized or relocated to a rescue if he's very, very lucky) if the wrong people find out. It also misrepresents actual Wolfdog behavior for future potential owners.

It can still be a wolf hybrid. there was a wolf hybrid at the shelter i volenteered at, one of them looked just like that dog. The temperment changes with each individual dog.

It's probably a malamute husky mix. I don't see any wolf in him.

There was a wolfdog hybrid at the doggy daycare I used to work at. She was so social and playful.

Wolfdog is not a breed, just like pitbull is not a breed. They are descriptions. And Czechs and saarloos are animals who have been bred specifically to look more luoine, but with the temperaments of a more domesticated dog. Sure they may have been some wolf to begin with while they tried to create the breed, but they are no longer considered actual wolfdogs to the wolfdog community.

I have a low percentage wolfdog. Identified as such by her vet, though we usually just tell people she's a husky-mix, because she looks like one, or a shepherd mix, because she kind of looks like that too. There's tells of course, odd behaviors, and her ability to open doors is interesting. We're better about remembering to lock them! Anyway, I adopted her from a local shelter and was told that she was a husky mix. This is common in states where no special licensing is required for wolf hybrids/wolfdogs and the dog passes behavioral testing. She was the toughest dog I've ever had to train in my life, but well worth it, she's also the most loyal. She's a great dog, a handful, and I love her. I don't advocate the breeding of hybrids,but I do not believe in demonizing well-trained, well-behaved, and loved animals, nor do I believe in doing that to guardians(who may not have known what they were adopting, and the animal is family). I'm not alone in getting a "husky" that isn't just a husky

On the Instagram page it says 'husky, arctic wolf, malamute'
