Best Answer

Wolves and dogs are the same species, so they can produce fertile offspring together

When a wolf and a dog mate (reproduce) together the offspring is usually called a wolf dog or a half bred because it has the blood (aka genes) of both a wolf and a dog.

A wolfdog is an animal with a wolf recently in its lineage. After 5 generations from a pure wolf, the animal is then a domestic dog.
