"I've always said that the best wolf habitat resides in the human heart. You have to leave a little space for them to live."

I live in Northern Ontario with my Dad. He is a veterinarian and loves animals. I love them too and look forward to our hikes where we see all kinds of cool animals like elk, moose, deer, and eagles. There are also bears and wolves around so we have to be careful. My Dad says the best way to appreciate nature is by leaving it alone.

We like to go for hikes before dinner. It was starting to get cold and dark so we headed home. All the while we were being followed by a curious little creature. He began howling at the front door. My Dad opened the door to find a cute little pup staring up at him. "May I help you?" he joked as he opened the door. The pup immediately fell asleep by the fireplace.

The next morning I jumped out of bed to go visit the puppy. He came up to me and started licking my hands. "She's a sweet dog isn't she?" My Dad came closer and began to inspect the pup. "Hmmm" he muttered. "It looks like she has bite marks on her back." "Well you can fix her up and then we can keep her?" "We'll see."

After a few days at the animal hospital, my Dad brought the pup home. I named him "Wolfgang". He was a friendly boy and he slept at the foot of my bed every night. I began to notice some weird behavior from Wolfgang during our hikes. He ran so fast and so far that I had to chase after him. He was also getting a little aggressive, growling at other animals we'd come across.

I didn't want to tell my Dad about Wolfgang's growling episode. "So Dad, what kind of dog do you think Wolfgang is?" "I don't know but he kinda looks like a wolf to me." "Yeah, he he, I guess he does" I nervously laughed. What if he was a wolf? Then I wouldn't be able to keep him and I was starting to grow attached to the pup.

As the sun began to set, I noticed that Wolfgang was growing restless. He kept peeking out of the living room window as if he was waiting for someone. He didn't sleep in my bed that night as he remained downstairs. For a few hours all I could hear was loud howling noises coming from outside and a little wolf cub trying to make his voice heard.

Wolfgang was starting to act more and more like a wolf. He'd bare his teeth anytime he got upset and would hold his tail up high. Wolfgang would keep my Dad and I awake all night as his howls grew louder and louder. On the way to school one morning my Dad told me that we needed to talk about Wolfgang. I knew what he meant and I agreed. But I just couldn't let him go.
