My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Just as her name portrays, Wolfie is 23% grey wolf!! She is a very large dog; her journey began at the SEKHS at the beginning of the year as she was found roaming loose in danger of being hit by cars.

We see this trend with illegal breeders from time to time that drop off their "unwanted pups; so we first reached out to nearby wolf sanctuaries. Sadly, she does not meet the 25% genetic criteria. However, she is legal to own due to this!

She is comfortable with only the people she trusts, and all others she is terrified of.....sadly that's our hardest hurdle as we don't know the full story of her past on what she has been through. However, she can be walked comfortly on a leash with those individuals!

With time, she opens up to the beautiful and happy girl you see in these pictures!

Wolfie does have requirements to be able to adopt due to her specific nature and breed.

REQUIREMENTS:

-Wolfie is only available for foster-to-adopt. He future adopters must understand that her adoption will take time as she learns that she can trust them.

-Before fostering to adopt, interested applicant must visit with her several times out our shelter. This is to help start the bonding process as moving to a home will be new for her.

-Interested applicant MUST already own a large dog! She has done fantastic with other large dogs and thrives on pack structure; this gives her a huge progression point as she can move into a home with another animal that she is comfortable with.

-Interested applicant MUST bring their dog(s) with them to the shelter before foster to adopt so Wolfie can meet with them.

-Interested applicant must NOT HAVE ANY CATS.

-Due to Wolfie's fear of humans, she is currently looking for a mature household with kids 16 years and up.

If you meet these requirements and would like to proceed with the first steps toward fostering to adopt Wolfie, please apply for Wolfie online on our website: www.thesekhumanesociety.com

Wolfie is already spayed, microchipped, heartworm tested and up to date on vaccinations!

More about this shelter

The SEK Humane Society was started in 1973 with a very small building housing only around 20 dogs and cats. Now because of wonderful donations we have a bigger building and are able to house 90-95 dogs and 35-40 cats. We are a non-profit and are run on donations and a few grants. Our dedicated staff and volunteers have a deep passion for the homeless animals in our area and work hard everyday to help better their lives and educate the public.
