A mate of mine had a litter last summer and the sire he used was "the wolf" from the north east, they will be a year old in june, the mother of the pups was stolen around christmas time and the bitch he kept back was knocked down by a car crippled and PTS, he also kept a dog back and he is shaping well. I have heard that the wolf is one hell of a dog, but also heard that he is a nasty fecker with other dogs
