quote="morganae, post: 289861, member: 25552"]Wolves aren't dogs. Any wolf you've been around has been near humans far too long. I've a few I've played with as well (nothing nasty!) rolling over for anyone is not wolf like behavior, especially on first introduction. I suspect what you saw was a husky or German Sheppard mix, they look a lot like wolves (sometimes shot due to the mistake) but they're dogs and act like them.

A wolf pup needs to be taken from the mother before it's 2 weeks old or the pup will be shy and will NOT want to be around people at all. Due to the young age they need to be bottle fed and handled properly, one screw up and you'll have a very unfriendly animal... there aren't second chances with a wolf pup, even a hybrid.

They have to have limited contact with other canines, no contact is really bad, so is a lot of contact. Without properly managed contact a wolf will direct all social behavior towards humans, this includes social aggression... which someone may not survive. It does need some contact so it can learn not to fear dogs and learn some of their behaviors.

A wolf is amazingly smart and constantly learning an analyzing situations. For instance, with a Dog you are dominant no matter what, if you're a jackass or even if you're sick and injured, you're still the Boss; this is not what happens with a Wolf. I wolf is always watching for an opportunity to better it's position in the pack, and yes, those that live with the wolf are the Pack. If you are sick, hurt or if anyone the wolf considers above him happens to be so, the Wolf will take the opportunity to express dominance. The age of the Wolf doesn't matter and there are instances that are well documented of this happening with animals as young as 2 and and old as 11 years!

A wolf will automatically check it's status against a new person. As far as the wolf is concerned, you have no standing. You're a stranger and often the reaction is less than friendly, at best the wolf may consider you as someone to watch. A wolf rolling over at first introduction is not going to happen. An "Alpha Male" isn't going to be in a home or in any other situation where you'd be happy to meet. The Alpha of a pack MUST be the human owners, anything else is going to be a disaster and cause the death and pain of the humans, especially if there are kids. The only way you'd encounter an Alpha of any pack is either in the woods or in a zoo. Anything else is either a Dog or what is called a "Wolfdog" which is a dog bred to appear wolf-like and are often mistaken for wolves, even by owners who think they have a wolf but were sold a pretty dog.

Of course what would I know? After all, it's not like I work with Wolves for a living... Oh wait, it is what I do! Sorry, forgot for a moment.[/quote]
