Wolfdogs are each different and, a lot of that has to do with how much wolf and how much dog they actually are but, it's also early socialization and constant training. They are energetic, itllegent and, do actually grow up, unlike a dog that basically gets stuck as a young teenager for life and never metally matures any further, a wolfdog will mature mentally to an adult. Kids, puppies and other things that want to play are annoyances to an adult wolfdog and, unless it's the parent, it isn't going to take kindly to the antics of young children, cats, smaller dogs, etc....
They also have a very strong prey drive and, to them that means food and, thus survival (even if that is not realistic in the home, it is in the wolfdog's mind.) ANY prey animal, regardless of housing is a potential target and, left to it, a wolfdog will work until it finds a way to get to the prey, including chewing wire, digging, climbing and, jumping.
They are wary of strangers of any species, human or animal and, depending on how you and other family members interact with the stranger, they may see the stranger as in intruder trying to usurp their place in the family (pack). That's when you have problems with them.
Wolfdogs also do not do well left alone. (you go to town and leave the wolfdog in the house alone.) You will most likely come home to several things being chewed, clawed and otherwise destroyed, including the couch, doors, curtains or blinds, your clothing, the bath tub, toilet seat, carpet, etc.... and the canary will be gone save a few feathers, the cat either dead or hiding in the attic and, the house rabbit gone as well. That's simply what a wolfdog does and, is the wolfdog owner's definition of house broken that has nothing to do with house training the wolfdog to use the bathroom outdoors only.
You can't leave then unsupervised unless you put them in a proper enclosure or crate.
They love interacting with their family, are social but, only on their terms, not yours. They are the pet you go for a five mile run with, not the one you play fetch or tug o' war with and, not the one your kids lay on the floor and wrestle with.
You do have to understand them and how to train and live with them but, if you take the time to educate yourself they can be wonderful family members and, a joy to have as friends. They read their owners well and, if you are down, they will do all they can think of to cheer you up. Mine will lick, cuddle, bring me their food, try to coax me outside to play, whine, "talk" to me, chase their tails, etc... in an effort to make me feel better and, it always works sooner or later.
Yes they do well on a RMB diet but, a high quality low or no grain or soy kibble is good too and, you need to feed a kibble regularly so that if they need to, they will willingly eat kibble. They also have about twice the PSI jaw power of even the strongest domestic dogs (pits, GSD, etc...) so you have to keep that in mind with toys and other objects meant for them. Cracking open raw cow leg (cannon) bones is no trouble for them, nor is shredding a bench made of 2x4 planks (yes my male did that when he was 6 months old. Left the bench in his enclosure and went to town - he shredded the bench. LOL )
