Meet Moxie the Boxie

Moxie the Boxie, has been our inside companion for many years and grew up with the wolves. Asher and Yawa were just one year old when we adopted Moxie at 4 weeks old. Asher and Yawa got along with her as she was a puppy and the parenting instincts kicked in. They were gentle and had no aggressive behavior. We never left Moxie alone with them. We were watchful. As Moxie grew up playing with wolves for her first year it was fun watching the wolves lay down to let her chew on them.
When the wolves had their own litter we stopped allowing Moxie in the kennel with the wolves. The wolves were allowed to raise their young with limited handling by humans. We were curious to see what a wolf's manners would be if it we did that. I can truly say they are more wolf than their own parents!
As the wolves howl a lot, Moxie has learned to howl with them. Her howl is not quite up to par with the wolves but it is amusing to listen to. In turn she barks at the slightest noise and gets the wolves a howling thinking someone is approaching their territory. It is amazing how a dog raised with wolves has communication with each other. I do have a story that was most terrifying to go through for another day. That lesson taught us to always be watchful as a wolf.
