It was a rotten experience, but I'm glad it wasn't worse. I think it was reasonable of her to have them off leash in a remote area, but she did so much wrong after---this was just some of the worst dog handling I've ever seen. I never heard her say a single command or attempt to drop or recall her pack; she didn't run after them when she realized they were off. As someone who kept a pack of very dog-aggressive wolf hybrids for the duration of their lives, I have a lot of sympathy for the original accident, and am just utterly furious over her subsequent failure to help me or contain them.

I love being able to let my pack off leash where possible; one of the many wonderful benefits of training them. I miss the wolves a lot, but it is nice to meet strange dogs in the woods and know that mine are going to play, not fight.
