Ooh, wolf hybrid.
He's going to be a handful... As if huskies weren't enough work as it is.
Is he still a puppy?

He's about 2, and as to working with wolfdogs not a problem at all. I grew up working at Candy Kitchen Wolf Sancturary now known as Wild Spirit Wolf Sancturary. And yeah he is totally awesome.

nice.

Interesting article on wolfdog color genetics......




He is cute though (what color are his eyes really?)

See the ice blue around the red area, thats his eye color. Looks 100 times better irl though.

I will read that once I get home.

....is he really low content then, are you sure he's even a hyrbid? Since the genetic blue eyes from the husky do not typically show up in hybrids. That combined with his white nails and distinctive masking, I suppose he'd be a better pet that way. Fun fact: Most hyrbids (wolves too!) don't get red eye either.

Actually basing anything off of how a hybrid looks would be basing someones behavior off the color of their skin. I have delt with wolf dogs over the years who end up looking %100 like a normal mutt with nothing what so ever in their physical appearance to indicate wolf at all yet were %100 wolf when it came to mentality, behavior, everything else but looks. Then again I have also encountered many cases of the complete opposite end of the spectrum where the cross happened to bring along the full wolf looks and body just the common domesticated brain. And as to the fun fact abour red eye... I would gladly show you many many pictures taken out at candy kitchen wolf rescue and sanctuary now known as Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary that have red eyein them even with "full blooded wolves" Though OFTEN, yes you are correct just not always. As to the white nails, I have seen wild wolves that we have tranqed for tagging purposes that had white claws as well. All it is, is the melanin which has nothing at all to do with the strength of what that melanin is in. Also again to the red eye, in images where the picture is directly on as in the dog or wolf is looking at the camera and flash, correct and incorrect, most all canines and lupines as well as vulpines afe not red. However when catching the inside side of the eye as in the pics that you are refering to then you see the red from there that has been reflected around the eye and causes the red eye appearance. Blue eyes I would suggest that you look around into more lupines to make sure that that is not a color that can be found in even wild lupines let alone hybrids. Look into a few of those things and try to allow yourself to learn more about the species not only in part but in its entirety.
