Great way to learn about wolf-dogs

This is not a summer activity. The wolf-dogs are much more active in cooler weather. When we drove up we realized we were going to someones house. I was a little unsure about this place till we got inside. The set-up is nice and the...More

Meeting these wolf dogs was a very interesting and fluffy experience. These wolf dogs are more friendly than many dogs I’ve met. I highly recommend this tour not only for the amazing experience of petting an animal that’s 98% wolf but also to learn about...More

It is unfortunate that people continue to breed and sell wolf dogs. Not because they are dangerous, but because there are so few homes that are able to provide safe keeping. Thank you for your post and hope to see you again some day.
