Hanka, I cannot agree with you wholehartedly. Of course, wolfdogs are a working breed etc, that's all true. But Brynne asked about bringing wolfdog to work with strange dogs, and that might be a problem if the wolfdog was not chosen and brought up properly.

Wolfdogs have a strong sense of hierarchy and lot of males and females tend to start dominating other member of their gender. Some male you can never let running free with other males (especially strange ones) and the same is true for females.

So I think Brynne that you would have to choose your pup carefully and to teach it from the beginning that there are always strange dogs around and that it is not supposed to fight with them. When this is understood, then the wolfdogs love to play with other dogs and have a lot of fun on such walks.
