The personality of these dogs will not allow it. They cannot be used as guard dogs either, because, although they can , they won't bark. Even the most recent information about this breed still state that the Saarloos Wolfdog can be used as a guide dog for the blind. In the past, when everything went a little less fast, and when traffic still wasn't as heavy as it is now, there were indeed some specially selected Saarloos Wolfdog who could do this job, a real blessing to their owners i must say, but it should also be noted that this breed, because of its flee-impulse, normally cannot be used for this type of work. As an owner of a Saarloos Wolfdog, you always draw attention.
People are very curious, but often keep their distance.
Sadly, a warm plea for the wolf is all too often rejected immediately by disbelief. Others luckily realise quite fast that the creature in front of them is a dog with wolf blood. And ofcourse, then, they want to know exactly how much wolf there is in the breed. Ofcourse, this is genetically speaking pure nonsense. If we want to explain further about differences with a normal dog, then we talk about the differences mostly in personality or character , which are by no means absolute, but more gradual differences.
