Wolfblood

Writes blogger fotomm:

One of the projects taken me for the festival "Fotograffiti" in Perm on Wolfdog was so loudly called hybrids derived from crosses between wolves and dogs. Trying to mix these two divergent paths for different types of evolution were made since the days of ancient Rome.
And only the project "Perm Wolfdog" can be considered truly successful.

My acquaintance with this subject was quite by accident. Back from shooting Sovetskaya (the same project, which won first place in the category) and my head is spinning thought - should be removed from the frame with a view of the street to the building of the city administration to show how close it is.
Trying to enter the entrance of the house faced with the girl and was forced to meet). Olga was the trainer dog handlers and invited me to walk with her and her five pets. Then we got in touch with Professor Kasimov, who just initiated project Perm Wolfdog. The next morning I arrived in Perm Military Institute of Internal Troops of the Russian Interior Ministry, where I was met by Vyacheslav Mahmudovich showed and talked about what it represents today the project.





It all started 13 years ago when Vyacheslav Mahmudovich at your own risk, for my money bought a two-year wolf found in the man who was going to make her a stuffed animal.
Naida was a unique instance. Unlike ordinary wolves, endowed by nature superostorozhnostyu and pathological cowardice, her so-called neophobia, ie fear of everything new, virtually non-existent and it was quite easy to make contact with the person.

Within four years, Professor sought to found a matching pair in the end it became a male German Shepherd and after receiving the first offspring has become clear that the work in this direction are the future and we need to continue on.



Hybrids compared to conventional dogs were much stronger, hardier, less sick and had an amazing flair, as evidenced by numerous experiments.
For example, they are able to detect traces of three-day-old, unlike dogs, for which 6-8 hours - is the limit.
The life span of 25-30 years, and fast learner - a mess that it is a very good option for military service in customs.
Then it turned out that they are well proven for example when searching for illegal connections to pipelines, and even in the medical industry - due to its unique scent Wolfdog able to distinguish oncology patient's blood from the blood of a healthy person! It sounds fantastic, but it's a fact!
I have demonstrated the ability Wolfdog and I was convinced that it is really very clever, smart and obedient in the capable hands of animals.



commands sit, down, stand - at a glance ...



Crawl team ...



Sometimes the aggressive nature of the behavior manifested, but it is completely controllable ...



Relationship with the owner of a very trusting, but you need to have the will and sufficient rigidity to Wolfdog always felt, who is in charge ...
As I understand it - is the main problem why Wolfdog have not received the recognition they deserve. Strong animals need more strong and powerful master, and it is not easy.

"There will come a gray top and bite for a flank" - to cope with this difficult stamp.
While the students of this military unit has long been coping quite successfully. Many of the pupils are now in different parts of the Interior Ministry, the army, the traffic police - in Chechnya, Chelyabinsk, Gelendzhik, Samara, cities of the Urals.



Is not that clever?
But this is almost a wolf, well, to be precise - 75 percent of dogs, 25 - the wolf!
Professor believes that the ideal ratio - no more than 10 percent of wolf blood, or more correctly, the genetic material. Who brought up the fifth generation of Wolfdog and we can say that the result is almost reached.

Every cadet secured its dog when he was demobilized, to replace another comes and the dog has to get used again to a new host.
Oddly enough, in this sense Wolfdog much easier to adapt than dogs.

The guys here are great, I thought of my short conversation with them - fans of their business and real professionals!

At the time of shooting this frame, I suddenly heard a chorus of enthusiastic soldiers' votes, and at first did not understand what was going on.
Then Kasimov said - Wolfdog black color, always slightly cowardly and cautious, today was in shock - no one expected him to such speed! Whether example of relatives affected, or something else, but he like a real dog Edge grabbed the sleeve of "offending".

See how saliva splatters

and the animal is always considered a coward?
All changes in their behavior, because they, like people, too amenable education, have their own character and nature, which eventually passes quenching. Whatever may be said "experts" who consider breeding Wolfdog unpromising.

I was impressed by what he saw, it really is very pretty strong and intelligent animals!
With the right approach, it would be very beneficial and commercially - grow them up for sale, the more demand there is for sure!
The price of such individuals abroad ranges from 10 to 30 thousand. Dollars.
But as they say - there is no prophet in his own country ...



Vyacheslav Mahmudovich - unique specialist who has studied the habits of Wolfdog and knowledgeable about them almost everything, yet not particularly rich, yes it is possible for this and does not seek.
He, like biologists, important principles and scientific results.
In general, very sincere and good man, it was very interesting to communicate with him and wish him every success!
