What is considered a low-content wolfdog?

Answer 1

Low-Content wolfdogs are generally up to 34% wolf.

• The animal shows little to no outward appearance of being part wolf.
• Most will cycle and breed like regular dogs (usually 2 times a year or every 6-8 months).
• Puppies will be born with pre-dominant markings such as black/white or all white (low contents can produce "wolfy" looking pups: keep in mind though that true high contents/pure wolves are not only born dark, but SOLID. No white markings on chest, paws, tail, etc. Paw pads and noses will be black) depending on dog breed used (GSD's/GSD mixes often produce dark "wolf" colored puppies).
• Most will look like the dog breed in its background (Malamute, husky, GSD etc) and will generally be easier to work with, living quite contently in the house.
• Some Low-Contents may have the extra "wolfy" look or personality quirk that people desire.

Due to the mislabeling of these animals- low contents are often mistaken for or represented as high content.

90% of wolfdog ads are scams. There are not that many real wolfdogs out there like all those ads on the internet are suggesting.

If you are truly serious about owning a wolfdog, you should join the "Wolfdog misrepresentation" group on facebook. There are many, many fake wolfdog groups on facebook, but this group is not one of them.

The people on the group have raised real wolfdogs for many years (some for 30 years or more), have worked in wolfdog/wolf preserves (the people you are trying to convince that you're good enough for a wolf), and some have even been on the news for their expertise on wolfdogs/wolves.

They are very friendly people, and before you buy any low-content wolfdog from anyone (since this is going to be your first wolfdog, you should get a low-content which means it is generally around 34% wolf), you should consult there first by posting it on the facebook wall so everyone can chime in and tell you if the breeders are legit or fakes.
