These wolf dogs need placement ASAP. The lady was sold a bill of goods and is in way over her head. the dogs will be at risk soon because of their age and their wolfy characters. If you can't help them, please crospost them to someone who may be able to hekp them .. Where Wolves rescue is currently full. Here is the info from the lady that has them:

Availability to transport: If it is close, I should be able to transport them. They do not like car rides.

Animal:
Photos (a good head shot, showing the eyes/a good full body shot from the side): Attached

Vital Statistics (age, weight, sex, etc.):
1. Max, Male born 12/23/2008, guess is about 100 lbs. he is neutered and micro chipped
2. Abbie, Female born 12/23/2008, guess is about 55lbs.

Personality (good with animals/dogs, alpha type, ?): Unknown, they have only been together. My male is in love with my cat, but they have only seen each other thru the glass back door. I don’t know alpha type… I am the mom, and they are the unruly children…

Medical History: Max is neutered and micro chipped. They are late on their shots, but funds are tight right now and I can’t afford it.

Any other information that will help with placement: ? I am told they are timber wolf mixed with red wolf, husky, malamute and golden retriever?. They are good for me on a leash. They know sit & stay. But stay for only a little bit. They are brother and sister from the same litter. They are very wary of strangers. I don’t know how to train them… they are not like regular dogs.

They are almost complete opposites… Abbie is very vocal. Max is more quiet and reserved. Abbie is very loving. Max is more stand offish. Abbie loves attention. Max likes to sit back and watch. Abbie doesn’t like the rain. Max doesn’t seem to mind it. They like to chew.

I love them. But they are more than I expected or know how to handle. I used to have a min pin. She was so easy. I call, she comes running. I say stay and she would stay. I say quiet, and she wouldn’t bark… Max & Abbie are not like regular dogs. I should have been more proactive than I was. I should have done research, I didn’t. I was told by the lady who I got them from that they are good and protective pets. At the time it was just me and my girls. I so badly wanted the protection part… They are not protective. They are wary of new people. They have not been aggressive, just scared of everything new.

They are kept outside. Howling at night is bad, I live in a subdivision and the neighbors hate it.
I would love to keep them. And putting them down is not an option for me. I also don't want them separated, they love eachother. However, I am at wits end... They eat everything, I have to keep them locked up when no one is home. They don't like that, it's not fair to them. They need more attention than I am able to give. If there was someone who could help with training that would be awesome. The hard part is I can't pay much for training. I am a single parent living in Arizona. I have a child in college and one in highschool. I have been trying to save up to get Abbie spayed, but funds are tight. I was told they are good dogs to have, protective, easy to train... no, they are very stubbon and like to always test how much they can get away with. And they don't like people...

How or what can be done to accomodate them? What practices are best? What are the big do's and dont's? How do you get them to listen? Any advice you can give is greatly appreciated. I would like to get on a list, but would be willing to keep them until my number's up... UNLESS, by some miracle the advice you can provide changes everything... I'm afraid I really bit off more than I know how to chew...

They are good looking. Sad, maybe somebody can take them.

That'd be so cool to have a wolf mix. the one thing I've always heard about them is they need a lot of space to do wolfy stuff. Still a lot of wild in them.

I have heard they are very loyal, hopefully they find a great home!

I'm glad to see the owner is being very upfront about the difficulties she's had with the dogs! Sounds like someone wasn't so upfront with her when she originally acquired them.

I hope they find a forever home with someone experienced with these wolf mixes.

Agreed. They make VERY good pets but they need a strong pack leader, even more than other dogs. I hope that they get someone that see the issues she is having (howling, chewing, destruction) is a by product of not having firm leadership and boredom. They are beautys for sure. for a new home for these wolf dogs...

My friend had a wolf mix just like these, she was a very good, and mello, but different from the other dogs. She didnt play, fetch, or even bark. She did do well around them, as far as getting along, she just wasnt interested in the same things. He got her when he lived in colorado, and paid alot of money for her. I wonder if there are some rescues, or breeders in colorado that would be willing to take them, if no one else can.

BUMP

Smart freaking dogs.

Make any domestic breed look like they're 2 miles down on the evolutionary ladder.

I'm trying to contact a wolf rescue I know. I do know they are at capacity. Lets hope for the best...they are beauts...

I need to contact this lady Cortney....

The BEST dogs we have ever had the pleasure to own!

(Akita M, Wolf F, Wolf M, Lake Powell)

Stunning babies (not just the wife either ) they are beautiful!

Sharon, thank you for looking into this. You will find out as you dig deeper into the rescue world that there are so many rescues, but damn near EVERY ONE is FULL and then some these days. God bless you for fostering, I couldn't do it because I'd end up with 50 dogs. We have 2 dogs nad it is wonderful they love each other and play, chase, wrastle all the time together. Just an thought in case it is hard to find that blue Beauty a furever home.

wolfs are my fav. if i had my own place i would be at your front door in a heart beat.
