I agree with calling him a shepherd mix. I never identified mine publicly as a wolf hybrid, it just causes problems. She was always a shepherd/husky mix. People who were observant, and those were very few, could tell by her stance and manner that there was wolf in there, not even my vet suspected. It was disclosed once, when she had to be anesthetized, since wolves can be more sensitive to anesthesia. Mine never barked ever. She would howl on occasion if my husband sang
, or if she heard sirens, but never, ever barked. She would face where ever she heard something and freeze and stare silently.
