This is the best website i have ever seen concerning dog attacks. Dogs.Bite.org Judging by the statistics on the site the wolf hybrid is a problem especially when you think about how few of them there are out there. 24 deaths since 1980 attributed to them.

I met a pet wolf one time. The owner was a federal judge and claimed it to be a pure wolf from Russia. It was a beautiful animal with that creepy i could kill you if i wanted gaze. He had the thing free ranging on his property way back in the woods. She seemed nice though and never did anything over the weekend we were there. It slowly walked up to me and let me pet it a few times. She would not react like a dog. She would just walk off nice and easy afterwords. It was a very intimidating creature to say the least.

She was much more dark grey and uniform in color than the wolves you see in north america. This is the best photo i could find of what she looked like. Russian Wolf

The judge lived on the property which was a few thousand acres of woodland and got the she wolf and 6 or 8 great danes to fight off the coyotes that kept coming close to the house and killing his catahoula's. Eventually the she wolf ran off with the coyotes. So beware, in the late 1990's in north central Louisiana a supposed pure female wolf from Russia may have cross bred with coyotes and/or great danes to form a super demon of the woods

This is why a got a golden retriever. If someone sues me over my dog begging for pets, so be it.

Also i always walk with a knife now just because I have seen one to many dog attack videos. Little stainless steel to the head and it's over.

WTF would the OB do?


Id buy me a really nice bay boat when the courts get finished with the dude.

Not a lot you can do other than file a complaint and lawyer up. I definitely would not go on old boys property for any reason and I would definitely not carry a pistol to shoot the dog after the fact....but maybe a golf club would change its attitude should it decide to do it again. Bad situation...I can't tolerate a mean dog that will bite people.

I had a big old Heinz 57 variety dog do this to me once and it is frightening. I strangled that fricker to death without even thinking about what I was doing...but he managed to do some damage before I grabbed his arse and laid on him and choked him out...it was very ugly. This was a stray apparently and I felt pretty bad about it afterwards because I am a dog person but survival instinct kicks in....and this wasn't a wolf hybrid....about the size of a big lab

Anyone who has owned a large "wolf killer" Livestock guardian breed knows that reaction.

And it terrifies other dogs.

My last one passed last year and we'd take him to zippies for tacos until about 3 years or so.

Puppies loved him and would climb all over him. But more than a few large dogs wouldn't even walk onto the patio with him out there.

Likely needs a bit more than that for an actual wolf hybrid.

Wild Canid genetics are all kinds of fricked. Lots of interbreeding of the species here in North America. Some of it naturally, some of it because of the persecutions...can only frick what's available to frick.

Wolves will not abide with man....that's why they are almost all gone. You will see any manner of wild assed animals doing tricks for man for food....you will NEVER see a full bred wolf doing it....they can not be domesticated. They have been caught and used for beasts of burden but they were never pets.

They are steadily trying to re-establish wolves and grizzly bears in Washington and have done so successfully with the bears to a small extent...hard against the BC border there is a small population of grizzlies, apparently, in Washington. They want to do the same thing with wolves. Horrible idea. Wolves will not live peacefully alongside of man...grizzly bears will for the most part....wolves will eat men intentionally....there is nothing in North America that is not on a wolves meal plan....if enough of them can bring it down they will.

The did this in New Mexico. They released 24 Mexican Grey Wolves in an isolated area of the southern Rockies. Within a year 19 of those wolves were taken out by either game wardens or ranchers for hunting cows....because a range cow is much easier to eat than an elk or an antelope. Wolves will not be domesticated and they will not co-exist with man...that is why our ancestors wiped them out for the most part. Tigers appear in zoos, Lions, Bears of all types....but a pure bred wolf will not tolerate the presence of food enticing it to jump through a hoop for a smaller piece of food.

Plagues, riots, wolf attacks and now the locusts are due this year....supposed to be one of those epic years this year when several varities of cicadas all emerge at the same time....we talking about some biblical things here!

Apparently domestic dogs are not as closely linked genetically to modern day wolves as most have always thought....their wolf ancestor has been extinct for about 40,000 years and was much smaller than modern wolves. Apparently the reason that Wolves are nearly impossible to domesticate is because they only possess a sense of smell for the first few months of life and are therefore not socialized in the same manner as dogs who can see and taste within a few days of birth...wolf cubs are attuned to the older wolves and anything that causes anxiety in them can be detected by smell by the cub...but the dog can also see what is causing the anxiety and how the older dog is reacting....if it is not displaying fear the puppy learns not to fear whatever it is....Wolf cubs do not do this....they can only smell and when they smell fear for any reason it imprints them....thus the only smell they know which does not cause anxiety is the smell of other wolves....they do not have the visual clues as to what is dangerous and what is not and so anything they smell their entire life that doesn't smell like a wolf is a threat....and a possible meal. They will not coexist with man like most wild animals....and that is why they are nearly extinct....it was them or us....

I read recently that Labs were the most likely breed to bite people???? I Imagine it has to do with their numbers but I have never known anyone with a lab that had the least mean streak in it....I know they all will pick up peoples hands in their mouths if you ain't petting them and will playfully nip hands when rough housing but I have never seen a lab intentionally bite someone out of fear or malice...

A knife ain't a bad idea but a golf club will do the trick at a greater distance....

Anybody else remember when it wasn't uncommon, in fact it was expected, that a kid on a bicycle was fair game for a dog??? I do...when it happened no one said a word to the dog or the dogs owner....it was always the kid who was at fault because we knew better than to ride a bike near the dog LOL. We accepted this as a matter of course...when one of our friends was knocked off and attacked we would remind him it was his fault, not the dogs, not the dogs owner LOL. No one had fences....dogs simply stayed more or less close to their house most of the time. We would tease those dogs unmercifully LOL....it was a game to see if we could ride by them without getting bitten....sometimes we did, sometimes we didn't...and everyone knew who was at fault and it certainly wasn't the dog! Imagine a dog doing that to a kid today.....

A wolf hybrid? GTF outta here with that crap.
You just watched White Fang or something?
I seriously doubt it was a Husky, as they are one of the friendliest dog breeds out there.

Wait, so you're telling me that wolves only have a sense of smell for the first few months? Am I reading that correctly?

That is what some scientists claim....maybe more like 3-4 weeks though but during the stage of life where they imprint danger....and apparently anything that does not smell like a wolf is either dangerous or a source of food. They are definitely not the same animal as a domesticated or even a wild dog.

Got it. I'd be very interested to read up on that if you have a link. Kind of sounds like Momma's theory on why alligators are so ornery.
