Much easier to train a dog than a real wolf . Over the years I have seen enough malamutes and huskies being used as wolves to see there is a need for a more realistic looking dog . Gorgeous animal . I've even seen GSDs being used to portray wolves. Funny! :laugh: Me too! The least they could do is pick something that looks vaguely realistic and wolf like :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannibalgoldfish Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Quote but wolves come in black so would be interesting to see why that colour can't be used for breeding. and White/cream... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akayla Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Rook! I do love this boy. He has a super gorgeous personality. Well actually so does Balto (another Tamaskan) who's owner is a member here too :) I am super jealous you got to meet him! About being so many males, two were imported at the same time wanting boys and the others moved here with their boys. I will see if Balto's owner wants to come answer some questions :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted December 11, 2015 Author Share Posted December 11, 2015 I think Balto and Rook are litter mates? Could that be right. I seem to recall her saying his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akayla Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I think Rook is Balto's uncle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyliedelonge Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Yes Janet you're right, rook is baltos half uncle. The boys were imported to Australia together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So long and lanky looking. yes, he was very rangy looking, alot like the photographs of wolves I've seen. She kept him pretty lean too, which I think is a good thing on such a large framed dog.

Lablover Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Fascinating. Quick google for information on the breed suggested 500 to 600 dogs, and they have closed the stud book? Why? Very small number of dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
