Pure Bread Alaskan Timber Wolf at Dog Park

[kittylover1982]

omg she is beautiful :) i have a husky x malamute x wolf mix (who i call my wolf) and to see a beautiful white wolf like that is truly amazing, i'm not getting into a debate on weather or not she is a wolf or wolf dog she is beautiful and seeing her play with the dogs made me smile that is all that matters xxx

[mikeisfree]

@kittylover1982 I posted this video for people to enjoy, thank you for your positive feedback.

[mikeisfree]

Kind of funny that so many people will become angry over a video of a pure wolf in a dog park. Just an FYI for those that post comments - you are free to comment as you would like, but any comment that attacks someone else will be deleted and you will be blocked.

@wolfdogfostermom I see a no content :/ Like you said, everything I've seen in nordics before. Typical Husky/GSD mixes even.

[HiXael]

@LycanArmament It's a no content

[shallowxsleep]

@mikeisfree Ok first off, WTF is with the slang talk and "ALASKAN" wolf?! Is this your "work around" excuses for why it looks EXACTLY LIKE A WHITE HUSKY????

[lowcountrytiger2371]

Alaskan timberwolf? Don't think that's a real subspecies. Maybe a tundra or arctic mixed with something. Usually arctic and tundra have black noses.  She is young, that's why she is so thin and no winter coat. I've had two wolfdogs. A black phase BC timberwolf/malamute and an Arctic/Mackenzie Valley/malamute that was mostly (90%) white. Pretty rare that she is playing with other strange dogs. They usually don't play well with others. lol

If anything that is not a white German shepherd

[mikeisfree]

Check out this video!

The animal in my video is definitely a wolf!

[wilsoncombatgrl]

There are no loaves here!

[wolfdogfostermom]

@wilsoncombatgrl , Lol!

[djclownism]

that dog is got tham gorges!!

[marty62fla]

I had a hybred wolf (Timber wolf) growing up , that was not good ! The owner should not have let that , the wolf was uneasy with the dog jumping and trying to dominate it! bad idea , very bad!!

[OrochiLove]

Gorgeous! But NOT a pure wolf. It's very easy to see that she is partly dog and well.. you actually can't keep a pure wolf as a pet 'cause it's behaviour differs alot from pet dogs. Besides my CCD can trot with the speed of a lighting ball...

[freshmaker15]

Gorgeous animal! am I to believe this dog park is on the side of a river?! where?! very nice!!!

[beachria]

@clarisasaulo The wolf doesn't come in until 0:30

[beachria]

At first I was like wow that's definitely not a wolf, that's a belgian.... then I saw the massive white thing come running in. And then I knew.

[MystikalMayhem]

from 1:00 if you pause and look carefully between each frame of the video to 1:03, that is not sand, it is a snow nose, another typical trait of the husky or malamute mix. Mid and High content wolf dog does not have a snow nose. And it is not sand, i can make the difference between a pink and a nose with sand on it. At this point, sniffing other dogs anyway, moving so much, the sand would be gone.

family reunion with a long lost cousin :)

[Breakingbenjaminfan5]

the second tht beautiful purebreed timber wolf came on the screen my jaw droped and my eyes watered.......tht person who claims her should be very lucky to have a friend shuch as tht

[nightkidd604]

yeah that wolf had a collar so it was not wild and most wild wolves are normally with a pack so if it was wild... her pack should have been there with her.

[boomshuka]

@Teakitot Wolves need rescuing?

[ImFlareonBitch]

At first I thought you were talking about the Belgian Sheepdog.

The white one definitely looks part wolf, but those huge ears scream German Shepherd.  Wolves typically have smaller ears - the closer they are to the body, the easier it is to keep them warm. I'd bet on her being a hybrid. Gorgeous animal either way.

[adriank9]

every dog wants to shag that lady dog!

[Bigron1081]

Reminds me of a bunch of kids.

[TheWitchdoctr]

Wolves are such beautiful animals. And yet... wolf-hunting still goes on pretty strong.

[mikeisfree]

@iwishyouhadalife She has sand on her nose.

[mikeisfree]

@chibi171 No I am not a breeder, and no I am not the owner of the wolf.

The feature that has me convinced that this is a wolf without a dog mix is her stamina and agility. Other dogs would run full speed in comparison to her trot, and she could easily trot around the entire lake in a minute or so and continue on. Any dogs that tried to keep up with her would quickly run out of breath. The dogs would then just stare at her, almost as if they were confused, as she effortlessly trotted off.

[mikeisfree]

@chibi171 @chibi171 Thanks for the feedback and interest in this video. The white wolf in this video had a black nose covered with sand. I am 6'3" tall and the wolfs head came to my stomach. It is hard to compare the height of the dogs in the video because the water depth of the lake drops off fast. The brown dog in the video is a mastiff mix and weighs around 115 pounds, in comparison to the wolf, standing next to her, she towered over him.

[mikeisfree]

@chibi171 The wolf did not have blue eyes. As a matter of fact, neither did any of the other dogs.

Unfortunately, you are wrong, this is a wolf.

[chibi171]

@mikeisfree Either way it is a gorgeous animal but I decided to put my two cents in on the matter regarding the identity to the dog.

[mikeisfree]

@chibi171 Thanks for the feedback. I did not believe she was a wolf either until I seen her agility and stamina. I did a comparison with her with artic wolves, and there is no visual difference.

I was a bit scared, initially, knowing that a wolf is at the dog park. I talked to the owner and he stated that she is constantly socialized and trained, up to 16 hours a day. She was a gentle giant during her stay at the dog park.

[wolfdogfostermom]

@mikeisfree, This is NOT a wolf and I'd be hard pressed to say it's anything higher then a mid content wofldog.

[deathscythe26duo]

If you are saying wolf to the black longhaired you are way to wrong about it. It's just a Groenendael. Also I'll recommend you to look other wolf and dog videos to compare about its size. Wolf are way bigger than that dog breed.

But if you are saying that about the white one I'll also doubt about it. It seems like a white husky to me, but who knows.

[Geordiguy]

The long haired back dog looks like a Groenendael. That's one of 4 breeds of Belgian Shepherd dogs,

[mikeisfree]

@fvgdfbdokd I found out information about State of Ohio. Wolves are legal in Ohio, under Ohio Administratvie Code 901:1-17-12 Non-domestic animals. Go to Codes.Ohio.Gov to learn more

[mikeisfree]

@fvgdfbdokd I believe that you are incorrect on multiple levels -

1) This wolf has a pure black nose, with some sand over it as this is a dog beach.

2) To my knowledge, their are no laws in Ohio restricting Wolves as pets. Please share your source for this information. I am going to do a bit of research as well.

3) Finally, if you search for Artic Wolf on youtube, you will see pure bread white wolves that look exactly as the white wolf in this video.

[carnivalwrestler]

@mikeisfree Just as a point of info, timber wolves can be any canine color from pure white to pure black, and their eyes can be a light blue to black. So it doesn't have to be an Arctic Wolf to be white. I've known lots of wolf hybrids, and a couple of purebreds. A wolf has 46 teeth, a dog only 42, if I recall correctly. So if you really want to know, just open its mouth and count the teeth : ) BTW, do an image search on Tamaskan, I think you'll like them.

[XObunnyOX]

That black dog with the long hair looks beautiful what breed is that does anyone know?

[mikeisfree]

@XObunnyOX Maybe a husky mixed breed?

[ChesaHakkunrai]

What is the breed of the black long haired dog?

[mikeisfree]

@ChesaHakkunrai Looks like a mixed breed of some sort. Not really sure.

[mikeisfree]

@ChesaHakkunrai I believe a mixed breed with some Husky.

[deathscythe26duo]

@ChesaHakkunrai It's a Belgium Shepherd, also called Belgium Groenendael. He's not by any way a husky or a mixed husky. I can say so because I own one :)

[maximum411]

Wow! And made of pure bread too! Delicious!

[MoonLitCat]

Well if you think about it guys, Wolves are ancestors to the dogs we have today. It makes perfect sense to me how friendly it was to the other dogs then. But to be fair the wolf did have an owner that must love her like she would any other dog. So she would be social and playful around other dogs.

[mikeisfree]

@nickacil You are correct in your understanding that the a German Shepherd is a direct descendent of the wolf. As a matter of fact, all domesticated dogs are direct descendents of the wolf!

[scarease1]

@mikeisfree i now they come in different color phazes and if i was wrong then i am and thank you for correcting me. i thought that it hair look to short . i had a german sheperd that had a thick biuld and heay fur. even during spring so i thuoght that it was a hybrid it had the hieth of the wolf but the biuld of a pairines sheperd.

[goddoll]

Aww hell, they're pretty too.

[urmangsd]

At first I was thinking the poster thought the black dog was a wolf (no way) then the white wolf appeared, definitely a wolf. Looks rather skinny, maybe still young? I'm surprised at how well it did with strange dogs, and I'm surprised at how well the dogs did with a wolf they may have never met before

[MystikalMayhem]

Holy shit he looks like mine.... i don't have a video but i do have pictures.

[bobbyboldy]

Great footage. Lovely to see.

[danceswithsidhe]

wow my heart stopped the second she came into picture. such a beautiful animal

[mikeisfree]

@BMWaM3 You must not of watched the entire video, a pure bread white wolf runs into the picture after a minute or two.

Look up a few "white wolf" videos on youtube and you can clealy see that this white wolf in my video is a pure bread.

[WebkinzLuver413]

Was it wild and just roaming the park?

[mikeisfree]

@WebkinzLuver413 No it was not wild, it was someone's pet!

She was a graceful wolf to, very playful and unbelievably tame.

If you do a bit of searching you will find that this is a pure bread timber wolf that originates from alaska.

[JamesPriceSucks]

@mikeisfree I've never heard of a Bread Wolf before.

[Enthalye]

Hes beautiful

[mikeisfree]

@Enthalye This is a female wolf and not a male. A male Timber wolf would be just bit bigger.

[scarease1]

@mikeisfree look like a long hair black haired german sheperd.
