Default Weekend in Germany with Friends, Wolfdogs and Wolves

I’ve just come back from a fantastic weekend in Germany and as usual i will share with all of you experiences and most of all, photos.
I must start from the end: I return home after 3 nights far away. I smell of wolves, dogs, other animals…I hug and kiss my family and evermore I know that I can travel the world but at home my little wolf lunatica and my little big faithful brother Oliver are the ones who I Love.
I went to visit two litters, Zlata Palz and Lobin de la Torre.

A special thanks goes to Michael Eichorn and Christian Berge who hosted me in their house, were generous with me and shared with me their beautiful experiences.
First: Micheal and Ina Eichorn’s House.
Baschka, Gerda/Tatra (beautiful tight lips and 11 years old…wonderful),

Falin and her beautiful 10 puppies (in excellent shape if you consider she gave birth only 14 days before),

Amy (one of the most beautiful csw I’ve ever seen). Super obedient females living together!.

Special note for Lorenz Farouk Ariminnum, great shape, great head, great pigmentation but most of all…the best character for a male that I’ve ever seen, balanced with people but also with other dogs, not shy, very open, willing to work, brave and ready to protect his territory and owners.

Short but intense visit to the wolf enclosure dealt by the Eichorns…
4 young (10 months) wolves with characters better than many csw of the same age I’ve seen. Congratulations to Michael and Ina for the great job you’ve done.
It’s always a great feeling to have direct contact with a wolf…

It was really great also to meet Mina, another crazy wolf lover like all of us!

I also met Cirus Spod Dumbera and Clint Zlata Palz.
I liked Cirus very much and must admit that his pics on wolfdog were terrible compared to real life: tall, strong, great character and beautiful eyes.

Next stop Hannover, at Christian’s house.
Of course, I love U’tala, Olivers son, Noomi, beautiful timberwolf/wolfdog, but a special feeling links me to Myla Crying wolf .. somehow I know I love that dog and somehow I know she feels the same for me.

Met Miguel and Daniela, with their beautiful Farna and the 7 puppies!
I admire him for his will to breed looking for dogs with calm characters and choose the parents consequently.
Met Tanja Askani, a special person with many years experience with wolves who dedicated an entire day for us answering to all our questions, showing us adult wolves (artic and European) who licked my fingers through the fence and somehow I didn’t fear at all.
The most beautiful wolf I’ve ever seen is Shadow…take a look at those beautiful YELLOW eyes.

But…surprise surprise…the greatest sensation of all the trip was the short walk with Noran, one of the artic wolves, tall I believe at least 80cm specially if you compare him to Noomi who is approx 71cm and seems a dwarf compared to him. He walks next to Tanja on a Lead like a normal tamed dog… and is totally inoffensive and obedient.

I think that with a bit of meat…you could obtain many things from him.
Also Tanja cannot believe that he is still like this at 21 months…already at 6 months she was asking herself how long I would last.

It was a really great feeling, trust me!


http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2071/...c0de1a.jpg?v=0

Greatest honour of all was to hold Noran’s leash…with Tanja more than 50 m away from us he was not pulling at all and stopping when I was stopping… I can’t believe I had a bigger dog than my oliver near me!

It was a marvellous experience all around and I must repeat my thanks specially to my friends Michael and Christian.

Hi Massimo, thanks for sharing... Beautiful pictures and I envy you the stay with wolves, they are so ... wolfish ... or how to say that. Serenity comes to mind, even if they are baring their teeth...

Hi Massimo,

it was nice to meet you too. The pictures are great! I have tried to send you some pics I took of you, however the mails keep coming back.

Could you send me your e-mail address to which I can send the photos.

Many regards, Minna
