Oh my squee! Maternal wolf discipline is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. If tough love was always this adorable, I wouldn’t live by any other philosophy!

I’m pretty sure these are huskies or mals, not wolves, but ADORABLE
That was my thought too. Looks like my dog when he was a puppy
Not to mention, it looks like Mama is wearing a collar or harness.
The harness means nothing. There are wolf breeders, and people have wolf pets. Of course, this does look more like a husky. Perhaps it’s a hybrid.
Could be. They are better for the environment.
Ha!
srry, but actuly, most hybrids have problems with thier brains, and are often born with dissibilites. its not a good idea to crossbreed spiecies, because that is usualy the result.
No, actually, they don’t. I’ve seen many hybrids that are just fine. Dog DNA and wolf DNA are similar enough to create a perfectly fine animal. You clearly have no idea what you’re blathering about, and totally missed the joke.
Incorrect. Plain and simple. It depends a great deal on what the species are. Wolves and dogs are not very distantly removed, so they hybrid well. For a different example, look at mules. Except when you’re discussing elegance and sometimes speed, Mules will kick the ass (ha ha) of either parent for sheer power and constitution.
in fact, the scientific name for the domesticated dog is canis lupus familiaris, so it’s not like you’re even crossing two different species, only two different subspecies.
Precisely
I have to disagree with you. Crossing wolves and dogs is generally a bad idea, because of the genetic inconstancies. Recent science has shown that dogs have a genetic mutation that allows them to be compatible with humans, while wolves do not. Because of this, a cross- breed would be literally struggling between two worlds- the world of humans, from its dog side, and the world of the wild, from its wolf side. It’s not that these cross-breeds have a disease, it’s just that they do not have the genetic makeup of dogs, which allows them to work with humans. That’s why dogs and wolves shouldn’t be crossed.
AB-SO-LUTELY!! And that’s why we have nice doggie who’s NEVER bitten anybody, suddenly “reach out and GRAB someone – who knows what sets him off?? A gesture, a look, whatever….
In response to Alex and those second guessing this individual, I would like say that s/he is *half* right. Wolves have a mechanism in their genetics that make them “grow up” eventually and once this mechanism kicks in, they become significantly more aggressive. We’ve bred this “growing up” trait out of dogs because we wanted (and needed, perhaps) something that would treat us as parents for the rest of their lives. When your domestic dog reaches maturity, you don’t have to worry if it will attack you to try and assert its dominance over the pack. With wolves, once sexual maturity hits, that becomes a very real fear. Mixing the “eternal puppy” with “grow up” gene can result in animals that are more doglike, never grow up and simply look lupine, or you could get a wild animal in a domestic’s skin and (eventually) a serious injury or fatality to someone handling the animal. So the doomsayers against the hybrids and the speakers in favor of them are actually *both* right: It depends solely on which genes are dominant in the hybrid.
“Geez, ma, you don’t have to bite my head off …”
*ROFL*
~hands you your shiny new internet~
THe markings say husky. I say this squee captioner has got to step up. He’s made too many ID mistakes.
A Canis Lupus IS a Canis Lupus!!!
and a Canis familiaris IS a Canis familiaris
I agree, this captioner needs to get his rear in gear!
they’re now considered canis lupus familiaris, not canis familiaris. barring some odd exceptions most domestic dogs are simply domesticated wolves. a few other canis lines have been domesticated in the past, but none seem to have become as widespread as those domesticated wolves have managed to become.
Oh please. Who cares about the precise ID?
…I don’t.
It’s a Dalmation obviously.
In Alaska, see these every day.. is def a Malamute, maybe a Husky, but I’d vote Mal.. and hey, since a lot of film and tv shows use Mals to portray wolves, it is understandable that lots of people can’t id them properly.. (til they are rummaging thru your yard, chasing you or your pets, etc.. then you learn to tell the difference real fast…)
Malamutes and Huskies have legs that skinny? I thought their legs were bigger.
Not wolves. Huskies.
who cares what kind of doggie species they are? they’re cuuuuuuuute!
I thought the zombie virus didn’t cross to animals… clearly I thought wrong.
“I brought you out of my body and I can put you right back in again.”
Om nom nom.
SO CUTE. <3<3
