Is my dog a wolf hybrid or not?

I've been told my dog is a wolf hybrid by many people. Others say she is not. She is a purebred American Eskimo. Is she a wolf hybrid or not? What is the true story?

i think the only way for you to find out for sure is to do a genetic test. that would be able to tell you for sure

Your dog is really pretty but she does not appear to be a wolf-hybrid. A wolf hybrid would have a much larger build than your dog has.

back around hurricane Gustav last year, some folks across the street from my grandparents evacuated to Baton Rouge from further south and brought their "dog" Spirit with them. Spirit was literally 75% wolf. one parent was known to be 100% wolf, the other was 1/2 wolf, 1/2 husky or Eskimo dog or some breed along those lines...can't remember which. in any case, while your dog is very pretty and certainly looks a lot more like a wolf than a lot of dogs do, she really doens't look like the wolf-dog that i met.
