I have a Mackenzie Valley Wolf named paris and we are about to start breeding her does anyone else know anything about breeding wolves that might help us out? We are very excited about this? We are looking for people with more Mackenzie Valley wolves because they are extremely rare does anyone know where some are other than in west texas?
Aloha, wow very interesting. In 1987, I was living in Plano,TX. I had a siberian husky(2yr old) being fond of animals and living alone I decided to add some housemates (four legged ones). In the (grenleaf classifed) I came across an ad regarding wolf- wolf/hybred shepards. The name of the kennel was "Dysart's Wolf Kennel". Long story short- I purchased a 90% Mackenzie Valley wolf/hybred(shepard) pup from them. The laws have changed regarding buying and breeding wolf dogs as to what they are specificly I don't know. I do suggest that you check out the legal responsibility first just to protect yourself . However you dicide I think you might still be able to contact Charles Dysart the person whom I trust would be your best source. Remember the show Mutual Omaha's Wild Kingdom? The host (Merl Olsen) well, It was through him that Charles Dysart purchased a pure Makenzie Valley Wolf and over the years bred some of the finest wolf/shepard hybreds. Awesome security dogs. I met two of Charles' best- "APACHE and CHEYENNE". Thanks for allowing me to share, but seriously before you start call around , get several pro/advice, and really plan t out. These are wonderful creatures (Wolves), and deserve our respect as breeders/and or owners.. Huge responsibility. Good luck, Mahalo..
