Every day after work I’ve been coming home and putting my wolfdog, Luna, on this tree tie out cable I purchased a few years ago for Doggie when she was still with us. I call these photos Luna the Werewolf because in that first photo she really does look like she’s a werewolf. When I first tied her to the tree, she took off running after one of the stray cats and ended up snapping her collar because she was running so fast that the force just snapped the whole thing and she kept running. Didn’t even phase her. However, the next time I got smart and made sure to connect the lead to her harness and her collar together. She took off running again and ended up flying 5 feet in the air and getting pulled back. I know it didn’t feel too good because she let out a loud yelp and came over and laid down in the grass calmly. Since then, she hasn’t taken off running anymore like she used to. I think she learned her lesson. When tied up to a tree, it’s probably not the smartest to take off running at full speed. I checked her thoroughly and made she she wasn’t hurt and luckily she was just in shock for a minute but didn’t seem like it hurt her at all when I felt around where her harness and collar were. She’s a pretty tough wolfdog as they normally are. It’s amazing how strong and powerful these guys are. I wouldn’t recommend anyone owning one unless they’ve had experience with them. I have known about them and worked with them in the past, and I’m still learning a lot from her on a regular basis. I do love the bond we have though. There’s an energy there that I just pick up on that’s different from any other animal I’ve ever worked with. Especially when you look into a wolfdogs’ eyes. It’s captivating.
