Quanti, the Dog of the Day
Name: Quanti
Age: Ten years old
Gender: Male Breed: Wolf, Malamute Mix
Home: Dallas, Texas, USA
 
   This is my Wolf-Hybrid, his name is Quanti. He is ten years old and I have had him since he was six weeks old. He is 82% Alaskan Timber Wolf and 18% . In my experience of ten years with this animal I have come to the conclusion that the hysteria over owning a wolf-hybrid is without merit. He is loving and friendly. He has never bitten anyone nor even growled at anyone.

    He was raised the first nine years with my other dog a female Norwegian Elkhound (Taffy) and they were wonderful together. Last year Taffy died suddenly and Quanti went into a deep depression. He would not eat or sleep for two weeks. He cried every night at the back door. My Vet suggested I get him a new companion. I went to the SPCA and acquired "Abby." She is a mutt. I think she is part Blue Healer and part Bird Dog. She has spots all over her (even on her tongue)! When we introduced Abby to Quanti the first time I was very nervous and worried that Quanti would hurt her. He did not. He immediately took her under his wing and has been fine ever since.
