Sometimes we wake up in the middle of the night because our dog is moving from one bed to another, and we catch a glimpse of their eyes in the dark. We know it's her because it sounds like her and looks faintly like her, even in the dark. But if we woke up and saw something else staring at us in the middle of the night, we would be absolutely losing it. That's what happened to the dog owner in the video below - he woke up to find two hungry eyes staring at him in the middle of the night that were not his dog's. It turned out to be a wild wolf pup that his husky found and brought home to meet him.

The pawrent fed the puppy, and eventually made the choice to raise him like a normal dog (we do not recommend doing this, as wild animals are meant to be exactly that, wild). Luckily for him, the wolf grew up seeing the husky as his older brother and alpha, so even when they fought, the wolf respected his new family. Now, they're one big (emphasis on big as the wolf is enormous) playful pupper family, and we would be lying if we said we weren't jealous. Imagine snuggling with a wolf at night! No one will ever steal from his house…. ever.

To this day, we dream of being like Snow White, who can just sing a song and domesticate all the adorable wild animals that are within reach of her beautiful singing voice. We don't care how it happens, via song, telepathy, or pure coincidence, but it's our dream to be friends with all the animals you're not supposed to have as pets, like a fox or a wolf.

We feel the need to state this again - if you encounter a wild animal, you should leave it alone or call animal control. Dogs have been bred for hundreds of years to be domesticated to live with families. Wolves have no such instincts naturally. Please do not try to raise a wolf on your own.
