The Utonagan is a wolf like breed developed over the last 20 years to resemble the wolf as closely as possible without containing any wolf content whatsoever. They originate from the UK and were developed by crossing Alaskan Malamute Husky and German Shepard Dog.They have a fabulous temperament and are friendly easygoing and very affectionate.They can be destructive if left alone for long periods and can also be escape artists.They have the ability to do well in any discipline. They are slow to mature but extremely intelligent dogs, who are easily trained from a young age and enjoy pleasing their owner in any sphere.They are not suitable for guard duties as they welcome everyone, but will alert you when someone visits.They do howl and can be very vocal.They are a large, excitable and boisterous breed, therefore not suitable to be placed in homes with small children, because if the child or the dog is allowed to get too excited the child may be knocked down and injured accidentally.They do get on with all other pets but introductions must be done slowly and carefully from a young age.They are the perfect family dog when owned singularly or as one of a pair. Any more than this and there will be scuffles and arguments to find who's boss, which causes both the dogs and the owners unnecessary distress.
