Shadow and Malik had an exciting time visiting with Board Member Nancy Gibson who bottle fed them as pups. It's great to see this level of excitement when greeting. They've had a rough time lately with the biting flies. Of all the wolves on site, Malik offers the greatest challenge to apply any type of repellent either cream or spray. Tolerance of this type of treatment comes from repetitive exposure to the handling technique when they're young. We don't use the actual chemical ointment on pups, but we do use vaseline on the ears and a spray bottle of water.
