I think that once a wolf and domestic dog are mixed, and have lived dependent on people, it is irresponsible and dangerous for them to be expected to live in the wild again. So at that point, a wolf/dog rescue is necessary.

I guess there will always be people, laws or no laws that will mix the two.

I am utterly against doing this on purpose. Think about a GSD and what is the one trait that if you could wave a magic wand an eliminate, what would it be? For me, it would be fearfulness/shyness, poor nerve. I am guessing that the vast majority of bites and injuries from dogs are becuase of this. That wolves have poor nerve, I don't know. In their element, there are probably excellent specimens and some less so, and by natural selection those best suited for life in the wild will continue. But that they are shy is well known and no one here seems to be saying anything different, save that some wolf-dogs seem to be fine with people.

Why would anyone want to inject something likely to put more shyness into domestic dogs. Doing this deliberately in my opinion is very irresponsible.
