So many people would steal this puppy if they could
By Jennifer Stoeckl, MAT - Dire Wolf Project CEO, Sept. 20, 2024
As I often do, I was so excited to receive an update from Sköll (fka: Godzilla, Cookie Monster/Jesse) today.
I thought you may be interested to hear how this giant silver male is doing in his new home.
“It's been 5 weeks since Sköll & the Monster Movie litter paid a visit here in Maple Grove MN, and I must say, (again), it's like our puppy always belonged to us. Sköll has settled in, done tons of exploring, had Socialization classes & we just started a AKC S.T.A.R Program at the Cloud 9 training center last night. Sköll was chosen by the trainer to lead the class(!) I was soooooo proud, my hubby Scott got tears in his eyes like a proud-dad would be! Saying Sköll is part of our family, doesn't even scratch the surface, to describe all he is to us. And us to him, we are HIS wolfpack. We visit our Vet tomorrow again, 4 weeks after his very 1st visit of his vaccinations, and another weigh in. August 26th Sköll was 30.5lbs, we are almost to 50lbs now per our home scale--so tomorrowat the Vet, we will have his official weight gain. (appears 20lbs, wow, since last vet visit). Not to forget to mention, our vet is IN LOVE with Sköll.....so many people would STEAL our puppy if they could (haha! Wink wink!).
“Thought I'd send updated pic's, he is quite the handsome guy I tell ya! I get MANY compliments on him when we are out & about. I also know we are coming into our 4 weeks since Embark DNA rec'd our kit, and we are hoping you receive those results soon!! We want to pass that info onto our Vet so they too see his breed & bloodlines. Scott & I are anxiously awaiting Skölls results as well, its kinda exciting!!
“Hope you & Jay are well! Many amazing litters you currently have, we still love watching the Direwolf Project. And who knows, many a little down the road, we may add another Direwolf to our wolfpack!!”
OMG!
Gimme that puppy back!!
Isn’t he just about the most handsome boy ever?!
And look at those ears of his shooting straight up so perfectly.
Or those humongous paws of his!
It sounds like he is being a good boy and rocking it at school, too!
I am so proud the buttons are bursting right off of my shirt.
Many happy returns to ALL of the puppies from the Monster Movie litter earlier this year.
May they all be as blessed as this boy is.
And I am sure you have been waiting on the updated temperament testing results that I’ve been promising for the last few days.
So, here are the official results for the Harvest litter!
(I will have to complete the Muscle Car litter puppies tomorrow, so keep an eye out this weekend for updates on their results.)

I will also perform the Mountain Peaks official temperament test #2 this weekend.
We’ll present the video of that on Monday.
