boltz – Aug 24, 2012 12:00 AM

Boltz has the most advanced winter pelage than any of the wolves on site. His tail has fully developed guard hairs and is mid-back saddle has a dynamic coloration. It's hard to believe this is the same gangly pup that was tripping over his paws. He's gaining height and girth, although he has a lot of height to gain before he compares to Denali, but he's advancing well. It's hard to say if he will top 100 pounds like his adult pack mates, I would be happy if he reached 90 lbs. He was 5 months old last Friday, and in comparison, Grizzer was 85 lbs by 6 months of age, so I don't think we will get the weight gain that we saw from Grizzer, but the next month should produce a noticeable change from that pup look to a maturing juvenile.
