Wolf to Dog: Scientists Agree on How, but Not Where

But they do sound like very similar dogs.

Her has had a hard life. His parents never really sent him to school, so he doesn't read well, tries to make a living with odd jobs and hauling firewood in from out of town. He is a GREAT framing carpenter, (that's how we met. He was a neighbor, and helped me add an addition after I had to let the first guy go), but, of course, such work is nearly non-existent now. He also has a record (ran from the police when he was younger and drunk) and recently his wife left him. So it is just him and the dog. He has been very good for years, but got in trouble again the other day, which probably wouldn't have happened if there was some work out there. I'm just hoping he can take care of the dog, because none of his friends can do the job he can with her, and we have the legal limit.

I'm about the only one she will sit for (hot dogs are great treats), I taught her some things when I took care of her while he was out of town a couple times. Every time she sees me she starts throwing behaviors like that at me, to see if I have something for her, and I usually do
