No one should own a wolf or wolfdog for a pet. It is a companion. There are too many irresponsible owners who own all kinds of animals as it is. I don't own, mine. I share my life with them.
Every canine gets testy, every canine has a bad day.
Wolfdogs are the same. That is what education is all about, responsibility, ethics, and the right to the freedom to share your life with the animal of choice. There are trials and tribulations and much devotion, time and love involved with the raising of wolves and wolfdogs. There is so much time involved in bonding and the dedication is needed that the average person, may not have the time for. They also get rather large and people must be educated on how to live with a large canine before even considering a wolfdog.
