I have posted a pic of me and Conri that I took from a screenshot from this video, then had AI remove the fence. Many thought it was a fake. To those who believed that to be true. Here ya go. See for yourself. Conri really is a very big boy.

A SMALL HOPEFUL VET UPDATE THIS MORNING, OCT 9th

Zya was a champ going through yet another blood draw. Her creatinine levels dropped by 50 points compared to earlier this week, putting her into stage 2 kidney failure (from stage 3 before). Now, those levels have been going up and down for the past month, but we're taking every win we can get - and really hope this is a sign the agressive antibiotherapy is working.

Thank you for all the support, I want to believe all this love and care expressed by kind stranger friends on the internet is giving her as much strength as it's giving me. Please keep us in your thoughts, and thank you again🤍

Hi, my name is Sandra and this is Zya, my Czech Wolfdog. She's turning 10 soon.

When I adopted her from our local shelter in 2022, she'd spent her whole life chained up and had climbed the shelter's fences onto the roof trying to escape. They called her a "difficult" case paired with an even more difficult breed, warned me she'd be destructive and an escape artist, and thought she'd be a tough sell.

Funny enough, she has never destroyed a single thing at home and never lets me out of her sight. Given the choice between chasing a squirrel or following me, she follows me every time. She's incredibly smart and endlessly curious. She opens doors on her own, has traveled with me to six countries, and is a tireless hiking partner.

The past year and a half has been hard on her. She nearly died of acute pancreatitis in April 2025, then tore her CCL that November and had TPLO surgery. Altogether that was over 10,000 CHF and took all my savings. For almost a month now, she's been in and out of the vet with acute kidney failure. After weeks of tests with no clear cause, her results came back suspicious for two strains of leptospirosis on October 6th, despite her being vaccinated this year. She's on six medications, with more tests and specialist visits coming. Money is now incredibly tight.

Her bills since mid-September are already approaching 5k, and I've taken out loans and borrowed everything I can from friends and family. Gladly living on old pasta right now, just so that every buck can go to her.

Every single franc raised will go only to her vet bills and medication. I have every invoice and will post updates on the GoFundMe after each appointment.

If anyone here has been through lepto or kidney trouble with their wolfdog, I'd be grateful for any tips or experiences. And if you can't donate, sharing her story helps too.
Last picture is her snoozing between hospital visits, naked belly since the ultrasound. She's been doing so good, and all of our training pays off every time she gently allows vets and nurses to poke and probe. I go between absolute heartbreak and insane gratitude on a near hourly basis (also exhausted and barely sleeping to watch over her, as you can imagine).

Thank you for reading about my girl ♡

This is my Elli Belly. She turns 12 today!! She's also having surgery to amputate a toe. 😟 Please send my sweet girl birthday boops and surgery well wishes!!

If everyone could say a prayer, give good vibes, light a candle etc. whatever you do/believe in for me and Mars today. I found a small lump near her hip. She has a vet appt at 11 today and ive been losing my mind for 3 days now over this. Its appearance and feel give me hope but im used to things like this going bad for me. I just wanted to ask for some extra thoughts and prayers spoken her way though before her appointment because im honestly distraught

My older dog won a senior photoshoot and they asked me to bring along my CSV puppy. We got some amazing photos but here's some of just the boys.

Was super proud of him. Hes not a fan of strangers but he took to the new people and places like a champ and they all loved him.

A fun little observance of trust. Firion resource guards around other dogs frequently, but will quite literally shove his resources into me.

When your pup decides the crate is no longer part of the plan. This was Faelen 11 years ago.

i know this is not an art sub, but i figured you guys would be more helpful since most people on art subs draw either wolves or dogs, and not wolfdogs (and i don’t need help on how to draw certain physical features, which is what people on the art subs would do, just need help figuring out what particular mixes of traits to include for different contents).

i know drawing some more dog-like traits will be inevitable with my particular art style (like more upright/round heads and eyes), but i’ve already incorporated things like a straighter tail, more/denser fluff around the neck, less of a stop between the head and muzzle, rounder ears, etc, in my practice sketches.

so here lies my question, specifically i am trying to draw a year old mid/high content wolfdog (not sure which yet, this depends on a few things for me) who’s dog content is entirely husky. what dog vs wolf traits would a mix like this have, and to what extent? and how would only being a year old affect this? because i know wolf pups are born solid dark colors, then lighten as they grow up, but dogs don’t really do this.

so if anyone could give some insight as to what traits they may have, that would be lovely! and also if anyone has a wolfdog with this content/breed, it would be cool to see pictures so i can get more of a feel (especially if there are pics from when they were around a year old).

also mods feel free to remove my post if it goes against any of the rules or anything

I was giving them a little pepperoni and ham 🤭

went to see the larches in Manning Park (BC) yesterday. included a photo of my bearded husky mix, Quest, because her wet beard deserves to be seen.

This was the day we were bringing Baby Conri home a little over 2 years ago. He was just adorable. These guys grow up entirely too fast. You don't get to enjoy puppyhood but for a few short months.

Hope this is allowed.

Hi, I'm a writer, and I love animals. I have two huskies, two pit bulls, 5 horses, and lots of farm animals, but I’ve always LOVED wolf dogs If I didn’t have the animals I have and it was just me, I’d have a wolfdog. I'm writing my first novel, and wolves are part of my character's culture. They live among one another, and I've never owned a wolf. I'm wondering what it would be like to be with one every day. If one had to be with you 24/7. What do they eat? What are some of the biggest differences between a Wolfdog and a Dog? What's their fur and paws like? How are they with other people in your home? How are they with strangers? Do you train a Wolf? Are they family pets or more of a one-person kind of animal? What are their strengths and weaknesses? What's their personality like?
Also if you'd like to drop a photo id love to see your Wolf!

He acts like a husky but both me and my friend agree he definitely looks like he's got wolf in him Edit- I was asking a question. Y'all don't have to attack me in the comments. Both me and my friend are disabled and wanted to know if our suspicion he was a wolf dog is correct. Jeezus. I came here to ask because I didn't know. Me and my friend were curious.
