Out in the boondocks, loose dogs in a pack are dead dogs. Or should be. Just like in Alaska. What are the neighbors waiting for? Some kids to be killed at a school-bus stop?

I know many of the Sebastians slightly. I’m not a bit surprised.

I knew a man raising wolves and wolf hybrids. Frankly, I think it’s crazy. But he and his kids were not attacked. On the other hand, I suspect he knew what he was doing. He said, “They’re pack animals. You start when they’re small and roll them on their backs a lot so they grow up realizing you’re the lead pack wolf.” The problem is if they get out. I’d live in fear if I had small kids walking to the bus stop in the dark.

My Mom is 97. The kids mostly rode horses to school. The boys brought guns and hunted on their way home and the family ate what they shot. (This was the 1920’s in rural Ohio.) Back when kids going to school could be menaced by wolves, it was the wolves in trouble, not the kids.

Why is the test done in CA? Who is paying to ship it cross country? IIRC, UConn could test it.

I don’t need to see the results of a DNA test to tell that the dog in that photo is NOT a wolf-dog hybrid. That is white German Shepherd.

This sounds like rampant Lupophobia. I've known many dogs with a bit of wolf in them. One of my dogs was probably about 1/8th or at least 1/16 th wolf. They're quite common in the far north, where I lived for a few decades. BTW,packs of feral domestic dogs are far more dangerous than wild wolves.

The Eastern Pequots are not the operators of Foxwood, which is owned by the Mashantucket Pequots. The Eastern Pequots split in the 1700s.

“My dogs don’t attack anybody.”

Everyone says that. But get them away from people, and in a pack it’s a different story.

BS!

We had a half wolf bitch that was the best family dog anyone could ask for. Wolves have strong pack instincts which makes them very protective of the family, but females are not typically aggressive without provocation.
