Tamaskan wolf dog

The Tamaskan wolfdog is a breed of domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris) originating from several countries including Finland, USA, Czechoslovakia and the UK. It is not to be confused with the Tamaskan dog which has no alleged wolf ancestry despite claims wolf blood by the breed founders [].
Description
Tamaskan Wolfdogs are large and athletic wolf dogs. Males should be strong and poweful in appearance but females should be feminine without weakness or loss of power in appearance and both will have a feral like appearance with thick coarse fur, and small ears with a straight, sickle like bushy tail. Tamaskan Wolfdog Breed Standard. The USA can boast the 1st kennel to confirm wolfdog blood lines in the breed
Temperament
Tamaskan Wolfdogs are good with other dogs, although do have a high prey drive. They are highly intelligent and have strengths in agility and obedience training, as well as sled racing. They are highly social, and do not cope well without the company of people or other dogs. A Tamaskan Wolfdog left alone for long periods of time may become bored, which can lead to destructive behaviour or escape attempts. Unlike some of their husky ancestors the Tamaskan wolf dog responds well off the leash and, with training, they will return when called.
History
