Saarloos Wolfhound???

rep May 02, 2003 07:50 PM

Is a Saarloos Wolfhound a domestic dog breed or a mix between a shepherd and wolf? Can they be trained the same way as other dogs or do they need special training like wolfdogs? Where can I get a good resource on them? Where can I learn more about wolfdogs in general? Thanks for any help, bye.

Hi!

What I have read on the internet (did search on Yahoo), this is a dutch breed crossed between a german shepherd and wolf in the beginning. It is an old dutch breed. Very beautiful.

That's about all the information I can give you. Sorry!

Yes a Saarloos is a cross between a German Sheperd and a wolf.As far as I know they do not require special training you just have to be more firm in saying 'I said sit so you sit cause Im alpha' They tend to be a more dominant breed so it is not recomended for a first time owner.They are friendly for the most part and are relativly nonagressive.

Hello, I did a search and this is what I came up with:

American Canine Association Saarloos Wolfhound facts

There is a lot of information out there, just type Saarloos Wolfhound into your search engine. Good luck!
