Dale is a 4-year-old wolf hybrid with a distinctive blend of Shepherd and Alaskan Malamute lineage. This guy is packed with personality: goofy, playful, and genuine. Dale has an easygoing, puppy-like spirit and gets along with just about everyone—kids, dogs of all sizes, cats, rabbits, and even livestock. He’s gentle, smart, and sociable; earning his trust doesn’t take long and he quickly bonds with those around him. He did have a rough start, abandoned overnight at a vet clinic, so stability is a must. Dale excels with a confident canine companion who can help him stay grounded, and he’s completed basic obedience training—but expect to keep training ongoing. He’s eager to learn, although that independent streak sometimes shines through. He’s crate- and house-trained, travels well, and plays nicely with most animals. Dale is a master escape artist, able to clear tall fences, so adopters need secure fencing and must double-check local wolfdog laws. He needs someone experienced—ideally a well-researched, established pet owner who truly understands hybrid dogs and can offer consistent, positive reinforcement. Dale’s best fit will be a dedicated person ready for the responsibility, including working with trainers and veterinarians comfortable with hybrids. He’s not just a pretty face—it takes real commitment to meet his needs and keep him happy and safe. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
