I had a Wolf Hybird Named Nikko due to severe inbreeding he had no spine and had to be put down by age 1 after a summer of calcium shots ..
They are wild dogs and need special care he could scale any thing, howled and yipped no barking.
Was a horrible watch dog would run and hide when something spooked him.
On leash due to allot of work he was fine and not aggressive.............
He needed a special diet and when he got sick ( father x daughter breeding)
the Vets advice was for a dog not for a wolf his advice helped kill him quicker.
My advice is to get aq LONG ccoated GSD from non show lines working lines they look very wolfish........
Here is my Nikko may he rest in peace his ashes will go with me .

Big boned mastiff type dogs with crop-dock and some have wolf colors
