I often hear that wolfdogs are a modern fad, but in reality, wolfdogs in the USA have a long and deep-running history. Here is a little about wolfdogs of the last 100 years.... McCleery Wolf Ranch -- A breeder who acquired wolves in 1921 during government culls, and created a line of wolves and wolfdogs, passed along for several generations, of which the last remaining descendants now reside at Wolf Haven’s McCleery Ranch facility. 
Tumblr media
IOWOLFER -- A wolfdog organization and pedigree tracking/verification registry created in 1979 that supported responsible wolfdog ownership and breeding practices. This organization was ran by Suzanne Smith, a wolfdog and wolf breeder who worked to try and outcross the arctic lines to get away from the jaw malocclusion that was in the line. IOWOLFER held rendezvous and shows ever year where wolves and wolfdogs and their owners could mingle and evaluate animals and work together on projects. IOWOLFER spearheaded issues like correcting percentages on lines that had been misrepresented such as the Gordon K Smith line, lobbying for rabies vaccine approval for wolfdogs, fighting against anti-ownership laws, and public education. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Fur Farms -- The Davidson Fur Farm operated in the 70-90′s that bred and sold puppies into private ownership. Later, he bred a line of 50% F1 and 75% F2 Norwegian Elkhound/wolf crosses. Many wolfdog lines descend from animals from fur farm facilities like this one. Davidson often traded animals with facilities that operated in the 60′s-90′s, such as Don Garrett, Rod Twitto and Harold Matz, other fur farms at the time that also sold to private ownership. 
Tumblr media
Bear Country USA -- This was a drive through zoo opened in 1972 and is still in operation today, although no longer has quite the same caliber of wolf as they used to. Many lines of wolfdog today trace back to their wolves or animals from other zoos such as the Folsom Zoo. This is an ‘end line’ facility, because, as far as I am aware, no one is quite sure where they sourced their original wolves from. 
Tumblr media
Rick Halvorson -- Rick Halvorson acquired a pair of pure arctic wolves from Aqualand via an auction, and another animal from Stanley Park Zoo, back in the 70's. These animals came from several generations of inbreeding at the zoos, tracing back to (to my understanding) a full sibling pairing of wild caught arctic wolves. People who acquired Halvorson arctics proceeded to inbreed them as well, to maintain the arctic genetics. Pure arctics started to have severe jaw and skull deformities due to the extensive inbreeding. Crossing to other wolf subspecies such as C. l. Hudsonicus was done, along with crosses to dog (including, most famously, great pyreneese crosses). The last few pure arctics from the Halvorson line ended up in sanctuary after a breeder who was trying to preserve them passed away, and are now deceased due to old age with the exception of a single 17.5yo female. 
--
Below are a collection of old advertisements from the Wolf Hybrid Times and other newsletters, where established kennels could list advertisements in. While none of these breeders are active any longer and contact information was removed for privacy purposes, descendants of kennels like these are what makes up the vast majority of multi-generational wolfdogs in North America (and even overseas in Europe!) today.  Unfortunately, due to the secrecy that has arisen around lineage on wolfdogs in the last 2 decades or so and certain breeders who won’t give out pedigrees or give false information, a lot of modern wolfdog owners don’t have their animals’ pedigrees tracing back as far as it actually could go, into the 60′s in many cases.

(Reuters) – Divers on Friday recovered the last bodies from the wreckage of a “duck boat” that sank on Thursday during a storm on a Missouri lake, killing 17 people, including nine members of the same family.
The World War Two-style amphibious vehicle was carrying 31 passengers including children when a storm hit Table Rock Lake outside Branson, raising waves that caused it to capsize in one of the deadliest U.S. tourist tragedies in years.
More than three dozen people have died in incidents involving duck boats on land and water in the United States over the past two decades.
Tia Coleman said she and her nephew were the only survivors from 11 members of their family who went on the “Ride The Ducks” tour.
“I lost all my children, I lost my husband, I lost my mother-in-law and my father-in-law, I lost my uncle, I lost my sister-in-law – she was my sister – and I lost my nephew, I’m OK, but this is really hard,” Coleman told Indianapolis television channel Fox 59 from her hospital bed in Branson. bit.ly/2LB7QwJ
She said the captain of the boat told them when they were in the lake not to put their life jackets on, an action she believed had cost lives.
Missouri Governor Mike Parson said seven of the 14 survivors had been injured, one seriously.
“Emergency responders and civilian rescuers helped avert an even worse tragedy as people rushed to help in extremely dangerous conditions,” Parson said in a statement.
On Thursday at around 7 p.m. (0000 GMT) two duck boats were on the lake when thunderstorms rolled over it, churning the water. Both headed back to shore but only one made it. The driver of the other was among those killed, officials said.
Stone County Sheriff Doug Rader told reporters that the boat’s captain survived.
“From what I understand there was life jackets in the duck,” Rader said, but he declined to say if passengers were wearing them.
The National Transportation Safety Board and U.S. Coast Guard were investigating, officials said.
The governor’s spokeswoman Kelli Jones said the 17 victims were from six different U.S. states.
Pat Cox, owner of a marina about a half mile from where the vessel went down, sent five boats and some 20 people to the rescue, most between the ages of 18 and 20.
“These people showed an amazing strength maybe that we don’t always give them credit for,” Cox said by telephone. “They had it and they took action. And they were good Samaritans.”
The first boat’s crew was able to pull two people from the waves, Cox said. “It was all hands on deck. We did everything we could.”
Branson is a family-friendly tourist destination with attractions like “Dolly Parton’s Stampede” dinner theater, the Amazing Acrobats of Shanghai and a Titanic museum with a model of the sunken vessel’s front half.

‘NEVER SEEN IT LIKE THIS’
Rick Kettles, owner of the Lakeside Resort General Store and Restaurant, said he had never before seen such conditions on the lake, which is a 67-square-mile (174 sq km) reservoir on the White River.
“I am 54 and I started coming here when I was 6 or 7 years old. I have been on my lake most of my life and I have never seen it like this,” Kettles said. “I am trying to figure out why the boats were out there. I don’t get it, having a captain’s license myself.”
A microburst is a severe, localized wind gust, blasting down from a thunderstorm, typically covering an area less than 2.5 miles (4 km) in diameter and lasting less than five minutes.
The company that owned the duck boat, Ripley Entertainment, said it was working with families of the victims.
“Our number one priority is the families and our employees that were affected,” spokeswoman Suzanne Smagala-Potts said on Thursday. The company did not reply to requests for comment on Friday.
Duck vehicles, modeled on landing craft that were used in the D-Day invasion of World War Two, are used on sightseeing tours around the world.
The company that builds ducks, Ride the Ducks International LLC, agreed in 2016 to pay a $1 million fine after one of the vehicles collided with a bus in Seattle, killing five international students.
Thirteen people died in 1999 when the duck boat in which they were riding sank near Hot Springs, Arkansas. Afterward, the National Transportation Safety Board warned that the boats’ canopy roofs presented a hazard, making it difficult for people, even those wearing life jackets, to escape if one of the vessels capsized.

Two tourists died in Philadelphia in 2010 when the duck boat they were in was struck by a tugboat on the Delaware River.
