Dog and a wolf

In accordance with the ROE of this website, I have searched high and low for an answer to my question. If per chance I have missed my answer, I do apologize. I will improve my SA, stay in my lane, do PT, work on my 25m target, or work on any other colorful insights you have to offer me for my lack of Rowan like behavior. I have a well trained german shepherd and a wolf. How diffficult will it be for me to take care of my dogs during the Q course? I have made arrangements for them for basic, AIT, Airborne, and SOPC. Should I make arrangements for them for SFQC? Keep in mind that the wolfpack is my family. I am not sure if I should find this funny or scary; but, my mother told me to find a good girl and knock her up so I have someone to watch the dogs. My reply to her advice...Thanks mom

Are the dogs male or female? Fixed?

Option One, adoption. Two, turn them out into the Michigan woods. Three, take them out back and put them down. Four, send them to the Reservation, we like dog.

What would a logical, aware, and educated person do?

You are a very twisted, mean, unsympathetic, ruthless and cruel bastard! And I'm damn glad to know you! There's so few of us left......

TS,

They also have a facebook page and will post pics of the pets being watched back home by the foster parents. Really cool idea, glad someone thought of it. Makes a lot of sense. Being an animal/pet lover, I really like being able to see the pics they post with the fosters when the pets look very well-taken care of and comfortable.

Dude, you gotta figure out how to reduce the weirdness level first.

I've seen domestic dogs turned out in Wyoming. Females are quicky absorbed by wolves, but only if they are young, breedable and of the larger breeds, (Golden Retrievers, Labs, German Shepards, etc.). I would not expect any dog to survive a winter without superior hunting, theft, fighting skills and a shout winter coat.

Males of any breed are just chewed up, wolf or not.

Shepherd is male. Wolf is female. Both fixed. What would a logical, aware, and educated person do? Put the dogs before himself. They like the Res in Michigan.

Stop and think here for a bit. The animals are your's - for now.

Basic, AIT, BAC starts adding up to a lot of time to farm out your pards. The Q Course will be in and out, here and there - and a PCS to Bragg which means you have to find a place to live - that allows large pets.

Your two friends are large animals and they would not be very happy in a crate all day - and might start destroying an appartment out of loneliness.

It sounds simple - zip in for PT - zip home play with the critters - back to work - home for lunch - work - oops have to work late.

And then you graduate and deploy. "SGM I can't deploy - my dog & wolf sitter bailed on me."

Think long and hard on what you're fixin' to do.

You're beginning to think, a bit. Dog are not humans, they're dogs, and they think like dogs, they will live like dogs, and love those who treat them as such. I'm a big dog lover myself, but I also love chicken soup.

Find a good home for them, and leave.

Be advised, my desire to enter SF was strong. I gave one friend a truck, another a car. I gave my folks a hug and a few other friends a complete set of young girl friends and a few older experienced lovers.

All seemed happy with the exchange, I focused on training.

Everything you say is true. The pack have never been in a crate before and wouldn't want to start. They are good for long periods of time as long as they get PT every day. I don't really want to be distracted by the pack while I am training; so, I would not leave. I don't really have a problem paying to have someone watch them. I have friends in Columbus. I would never use my animals as an excuse not to deploy. I could get my family to watch my pack for 6-12 months. I guess after getting all this advice, my dilemma is the long term care for my animals. What is my responsibility to my dogs? Can I justify myself?
