Hey guys! In today's video blog, I talk a little bit about my Halloween visit to Wolf Run Wildlife Refuge. While it was a very rewarding experience, it definitely took a "spooky" turn when MiKayla's car mysteriously stopped working while we were driving! Thank goodness we got it to a body shop and her friend could come pick us up from the nearby Dairy Queen where we were camping out.

The dog dressed as the grandma from Little Red Riding Hood sounds so cute! And I heard you talk about the behavior of the dogs who have been abused. I was wondering if you have witnessed a dog's bad behavior toward you or someone else working there while you were at Wolf Run? And what do the people working there do to correct that bad behavior?
ReplyDeleteHello! Most of the wolf dog's behaviors are actually out of fear. They are actions like hiding in the back of the enclosures, and not coming up to the volunteers when they are placing food or water in the pens. The majority of the actions are not negative behaviors as far as lashing out, so they are not behaviors that need to be corrected! Instead, the animals need to be pet, loved, and shown that humans are nice, and not something to be afraid of and run from! Thanks for the comment, great questions!
