I am going to try to write this for Raspy and the other guys that were asking!
My wife and I have wolves, or up until last month when we lost our baby girl Shadow, now we just have the boy Weasel and are having a heck of a time with him since her passing!
Back in April of 2002 we ran across a local ad for wolf pups, 100% pure wolves. We had to check it out and see them! We called the people and set up a meeting, they brought the male Thor, his mate for the life of me I can't remember her name, and the pups along with their 3 small children to a local park. They were amazing, they were very well behaved, nothing you would think of when you hear wolf! They let the children climb on them with no grumbling, they came to inspect us and went back to the children, so much for the vicious predator theory!
After a couple hours we had decided we had to have one, surprise huh, we had a little female adopt us, My brother in-law was adopted by big boy a male, the rest just wanted to wrestle amongst themselves. We took our little furballs back to the In-Laws on the way home, that was an experience. The first thing when we sat them on the kitchen floor and the cats came to check them out the look of terror on the pups faces and both peeied down their legs!
After everyone played with the pups for awhile we headed for home to introduce our little girl with our troop at home. We had a Samoyed Luckie, and Daschund Daisey Mae at home for her to play with along with a few cats of our own. Introductions went well and the picking order decided Daisey Mae ruled the roost, the Luckie and finally this new little furball, we never name an animal right away to see what their personality is going to be so she started out as Baby Girl! My wife Tracey worked out of home, so she would get the most time spent with her, baby girl proved to be hard headed and liked to butt heads with my wife. She house broke to pooping outside with no problems, the idea of not peeing in the house was where they butted heads!
She would follow Tracey everywhere which was good because they have to be socialized with anything and everyone that could come in contact with, a chore in itself. She finally got her name Shadow! The two of them would butt heads daily over the urinating problem, the rest of the time she played with the dogs and sometimes the cats and was always happy to see everyone. I think that 6 months of running the shampooer daily finally got Tracey to the breaking point, especially when Shadow came in from outside and squatted in front of the shampooer, Tracey lost it and beat her, rubbed her nose in it and threw her outside while yelling at her, whatever transpired it worked she was finally house broke!
