Company With A Wolf(dog)

- This is generally what you can expect from a high-content wolfdog (if you don’t take human socialization as a top priority). I prefer Kane to be pleasantly distrustful as opposed to Harvey who will happily jump into the back of a white van - especially if promises of ice cream are involved.
The ‘stranger’ in this video is someone I’ve known for a long time, Kane has even been around her a few times as a puppy. Still, when you’re not a member of the perceived family you are to be avoided. With someone who is completely alien he would not come close at all.
Footnote: Ha - no; it wasn’t nearly enough of a run to wear him out.

Wolf-dog has two conflicting instincts, wanting human interaction and being suspicious of unfamiliar humans.
Yes, and it's hard on them. They have to overcome every natural instinct they were born with to learn trust. Tamed and domesticated are two very different things.
@Benni B It depends on how many breeds there are between. I think like 3rd generation for wolves is the limit we can have. Anything above is too dangerous.
@@nisanight2247 Not every instinct, that's hyperbole. Wolves and canines innately know what trust is, to a certain extent anyway. There's specific instincts they have to work against but its not completely against their nature to be with humans. We domesticated them in the first place.
To clarify I know of course it's not safe to take care of any old wolf
@@NeutralGuyDoubleZero
Hyperbole??? Did we watch the same video? The wolf never could bring himself to trust. In the wild, caution is a survival instinct and try though he might, he didn't overcome it. Domesticating wolves into pets was a process that went on for generations. Breeding a wolf with a dog is not a viable shortcut. Do some research on the fate of many wolf/dog hybrids and you'll see how poorly it can work out. Many experts say you would be better with a full blood wolf than a mix because their temperament will be more predictable. Have you tamed any wild creatures?
Lastly, I would like to say I have no problem with this family unit. Clearly everybody has found a working arrangement. Hundreds of people don't and it's always the poor animals who pay the price.
@@nisanight2247 I called hyperbole because you said *every* instinct they had. Which is just ridiculous. Wild cats had more instincts/characteristics to overcome to become domesticated I'd argue. And even then they're barely even that changed from their wild/bigger counterparts, just smaller and more docile.
I'm *OBVIOUSLY* not saying taking care of a wolf hybrid or almost pure wolf is the same as a normal dog, nor am I saying it's fit for the average person. People should absolutely be aware of what they can manage and do more research. And there already is plenty of pushback against adopting wolf hybrids to be fair. One of the first videos i found about them was cautioning against getting them.
Wolf dog is as confused about love as I am
This is clearly the greatest inner conflict of all time.
Damn same
@Jeremy Two dude chill out it’s a dog video
Cut the music up
When you have a husky and people go "ooh looks so much like a wolf,"
so you go and get a wolf so people stop saying that about your husky.
I really did used to think that huskies closely resembled wolves but side by side, the difference is big!
@@AzzaYCF tbf they do resemble wolves quite a lot, they are just smaller and have a few different features. Overall, they are probably the closest domestic to a wolf that I know of.
@@lukeb1663 I think German shepherds more resemble wolves imo
@@BumBiFlarN yeah that’s #2 for me just because huskies generally have more wolfish vocalizations
@@lukeb1663 True and coating color as well. Still German Shepherds run, move and share so many other traits with wolfs. Both are really beautiful dogs :)
I like how even outside Kane is like; "Yes, hi! But don't touch. Look at me run! Right past you. I wanna say Hi! But I don't know you. Zoom!"
It me.
From what I've learned about canine behavior, I'd say that he's just confused, he's trying to interact with this human like he would with a dog and that's clearly not working. His owner already stated that he purposefully didn't work with Kane on this, because he wanted to leave his wariness of strangers in him. It's a good call, in my opinion, very useful in our modern days...
Not really since Kane is nearly useless as an actual guard dog due to his skittishness
@@pranavsingh7788 From what I've seen on this channel, Kane isn't meant to be a guard dog? But at the very least, Harvey could use his Husky lungs to Woo-woo everybody to get attention and Kane's sheer size he comes around the corner might scare most people off. No need to be aggressive when a simple "Hel lo o" can freak someone out!
@@pranavsingh7788 fairly sure any thief with sense would run as soon as he spotted Kane or heard him howl….
Kane is rocking the introvert mood about going out on weekends.
"I so desperately want to be with you and would also rather die!!!!"
I felt that. Mhm, best explanation yet.
@@spacewolfcub
Yup, I’ll second that.
Just an introvert being an introvert. He wants to talk to people but at the same time he's like "eh".
what a mood
Kane is stuck in a paradox
the way wolves run is beautiful. idk how.
Such a Graceful Animal, ain't they?
It's like they're prancing.
Its almost horse like. not in a silly way but just that it looks like it requires no effort at all
Wolves look almost like they're floating when running. I've seen dogs run like they're in the middle of a stroke.
They've been my favorite animal for years. Always have been. Always will be
And here we see a model of a canine solar system, the wolf dog orbits around this human as it cannot resist the pull of many pets from said human, but is unable to get too close to the human due to its own forces pushing back against it. Meanwhile the husky, being made of less mass, feels less of a pull, but has less resistance as well, and therefore flies directly at the human, at near lightspeed. Soon however, the wolf dog will do the same, as the pull of pets from a human is one of the strongest forces in the universe.
LOL :))
When astronomy nerds narrate floofy wolfdog videos....
(Not an insult... I'm an astronomy nerd myself!)
@@TieDyeVikki I'm actually more of a man of biology myself, I just happen to know a lot about both :)
@@chrystianodell1344 Me too... as well as other subjects... I love learning about cool shit! :)
@Advocate Of God buddy I need more than therapy but thanks for telling me something I already know anyway. And if you think an animal is a lower being than a human then you should take a long hard look into therapy as well.
@Advocate Of God Dude, would you just fuck off already. Nobody wants or needs your opinions or advice. If anyone here needs therapy, it's you.
Wolf: (Jumping up and down) yay it's a human, I will leave them alone.
Husky: Human, come here!!!!
Kane is me socializing irl.
same dude
My friend had a wolfdog and this is what they do. They see a strange human and they want to go off and be far away from them. Or they would go hide between the legs of their owner. Took me a little while for the wolfdog to warm up to me. Mostly I kept on going to pet or play with him and give him treats. Lots of "smiles" like in my profile pic. I finally knew when the wolfdog accepted me when he would hide between my legs when someone new came over lol.
Bro that "smile" especially from a wolfdog would make me shit my pants
My friends Australian sheep herder dog would watch company, then if they get up and walk around, she would nip them till they sit back down. Literally herding them back to the owner. Once she got used to you, then she wouldn't do that.
Thanksgiving dinners were...... interesting 😂
The man neighbor across the street said it took him three months for Kane to come over to him and allow him to talk to him and pet him.
When you wanna play, but the ancestors say no.
More like because European immigrants hunted them to extinction…
@@AaronShenghao also domesticated some
ha! ha!, how about that the other part of the DNA, told him to be careful, don't trust 😃humans. ha! ha!😂
For everyone wondering about Kane's wariness of the new human. I study wolves as part of learning about canine behavior. While Kane is a Malamute/Wolf mix, the wariness of a unknown person is quite stressful at first. When he was slightly worried at first, he still subtly showed his submissive gestures to her. The main one being to show his sides to her with his head slightly downward and not maintaining eye contact. But his running in a circle around her is him not only willing to accept her as a potential friend, but his way of checking her out. It does take more time for wolf dogs to trust but once it's there it'll never go away. I actually started following this channel for my classes just to study each of their behaviors and body language. So this absolutely helps me understand their similarities as well as their differences. So happy I found this channel. I adore wolves and Huskies. 🥰
Thanks for posting this! Have a wonderful day. 👍
@@hatiroth7919 I hope you have a good day too🖤
Well, this is gonna be the topic I'll definitely study about.
@@Mopsspoof It's extremely interesting I think.
I think its sensible to get them and annother dog. you notice how Harvey is trying to show Kane it's ok? Might help speed up the whole trust thing.
its so cute seeing how indecisive kane is. running around all energetic and wanting to make friends but still isnt too good with socializing? too relatable
I thought alot of wolf's do that when coming into contact with unfamiliar humans? They are interested but very careful? Idk just guessing
Bless him, he's working his way up to it
Kane is handsomely adorable. My mum lives in the country and a neighbor of hers had a pure bred wolf. His name was Wolfie and he thought everyone should pet him. He would stalk you on a walk and the minute you acknowledged him, he would turn into a great big heaping pile of wolf goo. I miss Wolfie.
my husky died a few years ago, and I was fine with my labradoodle but now I want a husky again. both your dogs are so sweet and well trained, and the perfect example that the behaviour of dogs is 90% training EDIT: sounded like I was seeking attention, but I just wanted to appreciate the videos
My alaskan malamute died just before Christmas so I know how it feels though he was only 4
Rip to the 2 people's dogs♥️♥️♥️♥️
@@davidduran445 mine died at 2 years old from a brain condition and I've never fully recovered personally. Not sure if they've got an increased chance of something happening but I feel your pain man, all the best
Genetics play a pretty big role in temperament, people really underestimate how big of a role they play. Selectively breeding dogs the way we do actually intensifies the role genetics play in their temperaments- good and bad, from how outgoing they are, to how anxious and reactive they are. Obviously mishandling can/will intensify the bad though.
Wolf was like : play with me! But don't touch.
cool to see the differences between a wolf dog and a husky right there. wolf was very cautious while the husky was open to getting pet right out the bat lol
I see lots of patience and respecting boundaries
i love how harvey is like the more personable older brother that's trying to help his very large but socially awkward younger brother stay calm and have fun with his friends
I love how the wolf has a beautiful, majestic, and serious look while the husky has a silly, cute, and derpy look XD But both are cute my favorite dog is a husky but I love wolves and foxes too
The huge apex predator, sleek, efficient, calculating, cautious.
Husky: be my friend hooman!
The wolf seems far more intelligent than the husky!
That's what a Bluescreen Error looks like in Wolf OS
Ah yes, so much for a “Big Bad Wolf”. See wolf dogs can be kept as pets. You just need them to be with the right person, give them the correct training and they will be as gentle as a pit bull.
LOL well said.
Si
You fool.
@Advocate Of God I can tell neither man or animal loves you and for good reason. 🤣😪😂
@Advocate Of God 😅🤣 take it easy ❄ no one cares what you think. I just like laughing at imbeciles like you. Did you get your much needed attention yet weirdo who nobody in the world likes?? 😂😅🤣🤣😅😂
Anyone who happily walks up to dogs/wolf dogs saying “oh my goodness” is someone I would trust with my life.
“Hello this is my nose” 😂 so cute
"This is generally what you can expect from a high-content wolfdog (if you don’t take human socialization as a top priority). I prefer Kane to be pleasantly distrustful as opposed to Harvey who will happily jump into the back of a white van - especially if promises of ice cream are involved. "
That line just killed me
The best way to introduce a new visitor to your wolf is to have them stand with their back to your wolf and ignore him. That will give him a chance to approach and sniff and learn who they are. Facing your wolf by a stranger is aggressive and confronting.
This isnt just true with wolves but most social mammals.
I do the same thing when meeting new people, I turn around and ignore them until they yell at me for being an asshole.
After the ice is broken we become best friends.
The best way to do anything with any animal depends on that individual animal. I see no evidence that the wolf feels "aggressed" or "confronted". He's trying to make a choice, and it certainly looks like he's got plenty of time and space to make that choice.
Meanwhile, the best way to appear intelligent on the internet is almost certainly NOT to give out unsolicited animal behavior advice based on a single 6-minute video (let alone based on a single overgeneralization you picked up somewhere).
@@yanathecontrarian4863 Dude, chill. They were just trying to give the guy a little tip he may not have heard about before. I think everyone knows there's never one right answer for every wolfdog out there, but this does make sense and might be something worth trying at least. Your username is very appropriate for you, btw.
@@Kruppt808 LOL :)
Kane makes me laugh at the beginning of the video how he is happy to see grandma but he's kinda bouncing up and down and Harvey is so over ecstatic that he shows grandma how happy he is by wanting to tussle with Kane. Kane is shy. Looks like Kane is saying " I want to come to greet you but I'm scared" Then they both do a demonstration outside for grandma, how they enjoy playing and show her how fast they can run. So adorable to me. I thought that was nice of the boys to be so happy for mom. 🤣😂 LOL
That's super interesting - it's the same sort of thing we see from domesticated foxes.
Oh his sweet wolf self 💗. The company lady has it down though. I wish all ppl would approach unsure k-9s that way instead of bounding in yelling “HI DOGGO” and looming over their heads! Harvey’s markings still mesmerize me. So handsome.
the way a wolfdog runs is so different from a dogs.it seems more like a gallop compared to other dogs. jeez such a majestic creature, i wish i had the personality and ability to have one as ive always loved giant wolf dogs
He is cautious from people he doesn't know well ?
Yes
@@Harv-Kane Is that normal for Wolf-Dogs?
@@thiccumboi Yes, depending on their content.
@@Harv-Kane “THIS IS A VICIOUS WILD ANIMAL PEOPLE, THEY CANNOT BE TRAINED!!1!11”
@@MustangSallyB1atch quoted from the woman who treated her wd like shit and wondered why he mauled her ass?
Well the Husky and the Wolf are soo beautiful together 😍
Nice Video 👍
surprised he had that kind of sustained excitement. my sisters old wolfdog would go absolutely ballistic happy to see me when i came over foooor about 5 minutes. then was back to the couch potato he normally was, just crushing me as well since his spot was the only other place to sit.
People say wolves aren't pets, and I mean they AREN'T but mankind DID allow wolves into their lives all that time ago.
Grey wolves were more like scavengers we eventually realized we could essentially convince to help us.
@@tropeadope4532 they definitely hunt, bro
wow you can see the wolf movement and gestures in the garden. fascinating :)
OMG Soo cute! He's such a shy boi. He wants those pets but is soo unsure, I love it!
So very interesting. Both are beautiful animals. They are so lucky to have such a responsible person. You are amazing. What dedication and love.
fun fact: dogs are the animal that kills the most people a year whereas the wolf barely passes 5 people killed a year
Well there aren't many people with a Wolfdog,and if there are,they are usually nice to them,not like others tho....
Also wolves when near humans are usually very skittish
@@theonionsystem7779 cool to know and i just learned a new word
I think mosquitos are the deadliest animal on earth.
Edit: politeness
@@lazernor kind of, more exactly the diseases they spread
i dont think i have ever seen a dog this confused before in my life
Kane is such a dorky fluffball! Love it! 💕
Watching your vids is so enjoyable thanks
Sit in the middle of the room/space, remaining relaxed... after having played with Harves a bit.
Showing two sides one positive and one neutral to him as he gets to know you maybe. Letting him smell and see first, but also smelling him back slightly and remaining calm.
Then going back to talking a bit and maybe trying to play again.
P.S. And then I keep watching and that's largely what happens!
Only other aspect I might think of doing with the humans he does trust is 'belly up' perhaps.
You raised your wolf dog so well it's honestly insane not aggressive in the slightest and he is a big baby 💯
The wolf is trying to introduce her into the pack, he is running playfully around her trying her to chase him. That's one way for dogs introducing new members
he's a wolf he's keeping he's distance because he's afraid of hurting them
or he might be as confused as i am about love
He's not afraid of hurting anyone. Kain's just avoidant. He's nervous/shy around strangers.
He probably recognizes the woman which would explain him being so excited or Harvey is encouraging him to come out of his shell, even if a bit.
He’s keeping distance out of caution of an unknown person/creature, which is natural instincts for any undomesticated animal. Its not cause he’s afraid of hurting them.
it’s like he’s debating with himself as to why he shouldn’t eat her
The size difference is absolutely apparent between a dog and a wolf-dog. HolyFFFFFFF
I'm cautious of people I don't know well either, as well as certain people I do know well.
When my Chihuahua mix is pleased to see my friend, he'll gallop towards her and then scamper in circles. He's clearly pleased to see her but excited to be off leash at our park too. It's quite funny. Reminds me a lot of Kane's running in circles here.
Kane looks like he likes that there's a visitor, but doesn't want to go near them lol.

This is normal behavior for a wolf, to avoid company but still want to be involved, it’s very normal, and their energy levels are super high❕😘❤️wolves are amazing dogs to have.
Damn,wish youtube was like this before
?
?
?
?
majority of videos that i watch don't ask me to do anything....... maybe last month i watched one reaction video and they asked me to give a like and leave a comment.
i think its more of the vids you watch then youtube itself
So cute when their jumping to meet the person 🐺❤
This wolfdog is so cool
Huskys are super intelligent, I knew one which was kinda aggressive towards people he didn't know, but as soon as they saw a new born, he that approached it, and he became as calm as a sheep and just played along, the same dog that once nearly tore my calf when it was still younger. He's a cool dog tho.
One of my favorite books, "Never Cry Wolf" by Farley Mowat!!!
The way he paces at 6:15 looks soooo elegant :)
The guy is his alpha, shows how loyal it is
That wolf is gorgeous!

*FREE CANDY VAN*
Dog instincts: CANDY? FREE? TREATS?
Wolf instincts: ...Something's up with this van...
Wolfdog instincts: Is it really free? Doesn't cost anything? I want that candy, but... I really do want that candy... No, no - Maybe? Are there any hidden costs?
You have beautiful dogs.
Nah, man, the wolf's just practicing good social distancing.
Now I really want to pet Kane...
Probably wouldn't take me 5 min, and once a animal tasted my cuddly skills they can never forget it again.
But respect to that lady, she knows how to act around animals.
Your wolf dog howls, my dog does nothing, the doorbell rings, my dog barks for 5 minutes.
I want pets. …. Just…. without the touching….
Haha brilliant. I love it so much
xoxo
Kane is so sweet... he wants to play so bad!!! Shy guy
there both so adorable
The wolf is like, ugh I….just….can’t…..dog for this human
Kane is shy with strangers? Is that the cautious wolf side of him?
Kane is so shy

So cute
Kane is me with people I don't know well. I feel ya, Kane!
Your reasoning is quite sound with Kane. He is a beautiful boy, and while I personally would just want to meet him; I know it would be from a distance and that's just fine with me. Although Harvey prefers to be the star of the show so, it'll work out for him at least lol
Aww!! Its okay sweet kane, there are some dogs who fear humans more then u do ;)
I see you have a pair of vicious killers there 😂
He's a big scaredy cat LOL
U have such a cute wolf and husk and “hi”
“Who is it?”
“Shut up I’m trying to listen!”
Kane reacts to people the same way my black lab reacts to the vacuum cleaner :p
He's a bungle of energy today
Nervous energy in this case, I think!
i had the good fortune once to touch a 1 year old gray timber wolf back when i lived in florida. Best part was the wolf allowed me, seemed to welcome it as well. The woman who was caring for him worked at gatorland and she lived down the street from me at the time. The wolf greeted me acting like a puppy, beautiful creatures they are.
Wolf dog is me when I'm about to order my food 🥴
Smart lady, letting Kane get used to her.
thats really cute and interesting
Kane: much graceful much introvert
New person? Must do the zoomies!!
Harv and Kane doin a hip hop performance....looks like it anyway...🐺🐺👈👉👋👌
I’ve heard this is why wolf dogs don’t make for good guard dogs. They’re very shy and their aggressiveness arises from fear, rather than in dogs where it arises from protective instincts.
Responding to your footnote : What DOES it take to wear out a wolf? (How old is each one?)
It takes....A Lot! Based upon another video he posted it's at least 8 miles of walking every day....not to mention working thier intellect which is equally challenging.
I can understand Kane. He's like "Why am I like this?!''
Kane is me in wolf form. The introvert is strong with him
Look at him
Standing there
*wolf*
Kane: Hi! No! Yes! No? Pets? Maybe. Do I know you? Pets! Bye! Wanna go throught! Can't! Yes! Zoom! No! Pets! No! Attention! Wait no! Playtime! Pets! No!
Kane is a mood
ok so it's kind of his wolf insticts that tells him to be caustious around people he does not see as in his own family? can it be trained away if you put them in tons of social interactions when they are puppies or is it somthing that a wolf will allways be caustius when it comes to strangers/people they don't know that well? like if i got a wolfdog puppy and then just bring him out everyday to parks and such where he get's to interact and get peted by random people (if he is comfortable with it ofcourse) like if i train him like you whould train a dog to just love all humans whould it be possible to make them less scared of stranger interactions?
You could, yes.
looked like he wanted her to join in on the game of tag
I feel like both sides of me have been completely exposed in Kane’s behaviour here. Yes. No. Want. Don’t know how. Don’t want. I like you. But from over here. 🤣🤔 Seriously though, so interesting to see this. I’ve always wondered about Kane with company and how he acts.
