wolves eh?
grew up w/ a malamute/wolf... the wolf side was peculiar at best... the malamute side ate the seat off of my BMX bike while i was protecting myself with it from the dog.
that was the odd duck in a line of huskies. the huskies tended to be a lot sweeter and a whole lot softer.
edit: no, not provoking the dog, it was very protective of my stepfather and i hadn't been out to the farm for several months because of reconstruction of the house... really, it was an absolute beast to anyone but him... i don't imagine numerous construction workers, daily, helped matters much either.
