Okay, lovies- let's see who has their facts straight!

Postby Kozmo on Fri Feb 19, 2010 11:33 am

So, while on another forum, someone posted a link to the following... and I nearly died when I read it.

WE SELL FOUR TYPES OF WOLVES; TUNDRA, CANADIANS,

MEXICAN GREYS AND MACKENZIE VALLEY ARTIC

All of these wolves are:

* Hypo-Allergenic
* Can be very good with kids and people
* Very protective
* Needs to be with people and needs companionship with you and your family



WOLF HISTORY

* The wolf is the lion of the North. They are called that because they are descendants from the same lineage as lions.
* Their eyes are that of a lion brown color and a thick mane runs around their neck and down their back. Females have shorter hair than males.
* They also have a cat-like bone structure. They can collapse and dislocate their joints.
* They can climb, jump up to 6ft.(or higher) from a standing position and can run up to 40 mph.
* Because they are 98% wolves they are not aggressive, but protective when needed. They have to be threatened or feel you are being threatened before they react.
* When you hear of a wolf being aggressive, it is more than likely mixed with a dog. When you mix a wolf with a dog you pass on the aggressive traits, brain imbalance and the health problems of a dog.

GREAT COMPANIONS

* They are not overly hyper. Usually they lie around, rest and socialize. They do enjoy going out and playing with you, but are just as happy to lie around and watch TV with you. Because they "cat-nap", they don't completely sleep.
* Easily trainable, very protective, very quiet, very clean, and NO BODY ODORS!
* They make good pets for even truck drivers! We have sold a lot to truckers and have never had any complaints. In fact, some truckers call us just to tell us how great they are in the truck and how smart and what fast learners they are!

HEALTH

* A wolf does not get the usual dog ailments and will not have health problems from inbreeding.
* Their bones are dense for strength, much stronger than a dog.
* Their skin is thick like cowhide which provides protection.
* A wolf's coat is fur, not hair, and there is no smell or body odor to the coat; this protects them in the wild so that predators and prey cannot detect them.
* They rarely get fleas because their skin is so thick.
* Since there is no dandruff, most people are not allergic to wolves. Even if you are allergic to dogs and cats. you should not be allergic to your wolf.
* A wolf can hear up to six miles away and see up to a mile and a half away or further if it is moving.
* There sense of smell is a lot better than dogs and they can do all types of scent tracking. Even weeks or months later.
* A cub starts out with the intelligence of a five-year-old child, they think more like people not dogs. They can remember everything quickly and also learn by themselves.

RAISING

* Our wolves are raised with love by us personally. Each one is treated like a part of the family.
* Because of special handling and the way the cubs are raised your wolf will grow to protect you and your family.
* They should not run from people.
* Since our wolves are not aggressive and not natural born killers, our animals are raised not to hurt anything including your pets or livestock. They are gentle.


Okay- there are so many misconceptions right there, I don't even know where to begin.

But, now that that info is out there... how many people honestly believe that bull?

Shar- sorry if I'm stepping on toes here, but...

By the way- that is a direct quote from http://wolfhavenspiritofthepast.webs.co ... idbits.htm

It sickens me, sometimes.

I still can't get over that they say wolves have "manes". Ruffs, yes- I think most animals have those. But a mane, like that of a lion?

And, still- the whole "they are lions!!!!" thing really unsettles me.

That is such poo-poo! I will explain my reasons later..Cause I am off to spin class this morning...
*Snickers*

Okie Dokie....... Mackenzie Valley Wolves, AKA as Tundras come from Canada (The same Wolves released into Yellowstone & Idaho for re-introduction)....hrrmmm how are they 3 different types of Wolves. As for Mexican Grey's that's just pure BS & friggin laughable as is the rest of the ridiculous information on their site :shock: .

Anyone who would actually say that Wolves & Lions are from the same lineage are morons? :? They may have branched off from somewhere close in the Pleistocene Era or some crap but WTH? LMAO

Also NO pure wolf female welps Pups in October! No matter what planet you are from... :lol:

From the only photo I could see on the main page, looks like a Malamute mix to me.

The 98% wolves they advertise & whatever prices they charge are equally preposterous.

I was reasonably sure the site was fake when I first saw it- then my shock went to horror and horror faded to a giggle.

Wow. Just wow.

My mom used to raise show dogs and she's very good at picking out the breeds. We had fun sitting in the "Breeding Stats" and "Gallery" picking out the breeds of each of the dogs.
I decided that that one black and tan "Mackenzie Wolf" is at least partially black-and-tan coonhound. xD

Love how they can dislocate their joints. I just hope no one's dog gets taken away and put to sleep because the owner insists it's a pure blooded wolf. Oi.

There where so many things wrong with that that it is hard to even think where to start.
First of all, who the crap call's a wolf pup a cub?
Most pups of Feral animals, as I have observed, are still keen in there wild nature.
You would have to have breeded for a long time to get that out of there system, but I know they haven't when they call there wolves Cubs and Lions.
Such idiots.
Also, they are putting points in there about giving them to truck drivers.
Wolves become huge Animals!
Keeping those poor things locked up in small spaces for long periods of time is a horrible thing to do!
Man these guys are either pet scam artists, or true idiots who can't tell the diffrence between a Wolf and a husky.

They are in it purely for the money & calling a Wolf pup a cub is an accurate term....

Even still, It is popularly known that wolves are in the Canis genus giving way to speaking to people in a way that is comfortable.
Say something odd, and people will know something is up, even if it is a true term.
Though yeah, they are fully in it for the money.
They will get the money, then "disappear off the face of the earth" as to say.
Meaning they will get the money and not give anything in return.
Of course it should be obvious by the means of transportation.
