North American wolf biologists and geneticists also concluded that C. rufus and C. lupus lycaon were genetically more similar to each other than either was to C. lupus or C. latrans (B. T. Kelly, unpubl.). In 2002, morphometric analyses of skulls also indicate that the red wolf is likely not to be a gray wolf–coyote hybrid (Nowak 2002).
Genetic studies indicate that the grey wolf is the closest living relative of the dog. [5] [16] Attempting to reconstruct the dog's lineage through the phylogenetic analysis of DNA sequences from modern dogs and wolves has given conflicting results for several reasons.
The Wolf Dog (1933) is an American Pre-Code Mascot film serial starring Frankie Darro and Rin Tin Tin Jr. Wolf Dog (1958), also known as A Boy and His Dog, is a Northwestern movie, directed and produced by Sam Newfield, and produced by Regal Films; Wolfdogs Magazine self-describes as a progressive "community based publication for wolfdog ...
A wolf being born wild makes sense, but how a dog got in this mess is unclear, unless it isn't: according to someone from the Project, it's plausible that this boy was a Wolf Dog purchased from a ...
These "puchas" (poodle-jackals), like the "pucos" (poodle coyotes), exhibited much less domestic dog-like behaviour than the wolf-hybrids. [10] In 2015, hybridization between golden jackals and domestic dogs in the wild was confirmed when three specimens with anomalous traits were killed in Croatia and had their genetic markers analyzed.
Tamaskan dogs are a breed of dog from Finland that have been selectively bred to resemble a wolf or wolfdog. [citation needed] Although their exact origins are uncertain, these mixbreed dogs were primarily arctic breed crosses of Alaskan Husky, Alaskan Malamute, Canadian Eskimo Dog, German Shepherd, Labrador Husky, and Siberian Husky.

In this treatment it is a subspecies of Canis lupus, the wolf (the domestic dog is treated as a different wolf subspecies), although other treatments consider the dog as a full species, with the dingo and its relatives either as a subspecies of the dog (as Canis familiaris dingo), a species in its own right (Canis dingo), or simply as an ...
The Paleolithic dog was smaller than the Pleistocene wolf (Canis c.f. lupus) [1] and the extant grey wolf (Canis lupus), with a skull size that indicates a dog similar in size to the modern large dog breeds. The Paleolithic dog had a mean body mass of 36–37 kg (79–82 lb) compared to Pleistocene wolf 42–44 kg (93–97 lb) and recent ...
