Dember (12/03/2013) [-] It can definitely be a little confusing.
It took me a while to realize that when people were saying "Dash Hound", they actually meant "Dachshund" - pronounced "dox-und" - a wiener dog. Another less noticeable one would be "Dalmation", which sounds like some kind of verb to me when it's actually "Dalmatian".
I have four huskies, by the way.
I love doggies. c:

harbingerwolf (12/06/2013) [-] They're adorable :3
By low content wolf do you mean they are hybrids?
As far as i know (which isnt far really at all when it comes to dogs) huskies and the like were still canis familiaris and if wolves are C.lupus then they might cross breed but the offspring wouldnt be fertile right?

harbingerwolf (12/08/2013) [-] Eugh classifications are confusing, especially with mammals it seems. I always thought they were entirely seperate species (which i thought was wierd seeing as they were just domesticated). So if domesticated dogs are just a sub species they should be Canus lupis familiaris then?
And you have to post pics when you get them
You should get your best photo's up and make it into a compilation, add some info (you're full of it) and upload it here
I'd imagine the closer to a natural wolf the dog is the pricier they are then?
Would also guess that they would be harder to maintain?
BTW, just watched a documentary on the Eden channel, Lost land of the wolves. I have no idea if its a repeat or if its a new show, apparantly canadian wolves are making a push back into the US which is awesome. Only seen the first episode yet, hoping its a documentary that actually ends on a high note for once.

Dember (12/09/2013) [-] Dogs are indeed Canis Lupus Familiaris. Wolves are Canis Lupus as well.
And, it really just depends when it comes to price. I know people who ask $2,500 for their high-contents - and I know others who ask $800 for high-contents in the same percentage range. I also know people who have paid more than $5,000 for those rare "98%"ers, such as pure Arctics.
Yes, high-contents are absolutely more challenging than low-contents and "wolfish" dog breeds. They have a much different mentality and can suffer from extreme shyness and fearfulness without early, careful socialization. They often need specially made enclosures if they will be left alone for any period of time. They have different dietary needs; while most low-contents and some lower-mids can live just fine on a high-quality dog food (and I'm not talking that garbage like purina, pedigree, iams, eukanuba or most other horrible yet popular commercial brands) and that's the tip of the iceberg.
Honestly, most people who get a "wolf" or "half wolf" or "high percentage 90+% wolfdog" don't actually have one at all; they're usually just husky, malamute and/or shepherd mixes with little to no wolf at all, because breeders either unintentionally or purposely misrepresent their animals as having more wolf blood than they actually do.
This is harmful for everyone involved - the unprepared buyers, and especially the animals; both for the pups they sell as well as all other wolfdogs and "wolf lookalike" pure dogs.
