Unique K-9 Traits
Wiley prefers to eat directly from the ground, as opposed to a dish or bowl, and exhibits many feral tendencies when doing so.
Wiley's Origin
Wiley won't say 'who's his daddy'. There is speculation that he is a rogue Channel Island misclone. Others think he might be a Yukon Yeti Dog coming from a sanctuary collection of injured and outcast wolves, coyotes and foxes cared for by a crippled miner in the Canadian north.
Wiley exhibits a wide range of animal talent, such as rarely barking but howling on command, and being lithe and lightning-fast. He exhibits a host of feral tendencies. He loves snow and is as savvy at moving through deep powder as a fox, wolf or coyote might. He will retrieve items on land and from water. In the image to the left he has been clipped short, but when left to grow his coat takes on a different appearance. See the image to the left which shows how Wiley can be groomed to resemble a lion.
Wiley's Compatible with Children & Seniors Despite his wild appearance, he has never threatened or snarled at a human being. Wiley is comfortable with small children, adults, disabled people, and seniors. He gets along perfectly with other canines, cats, and livestock such as cattle, sheep, and horses.
Wiley's Public Presence
Because of his unique appearance and friendly but reserved disposition, Wiley always draws a crowd. People often ask what kind of animal he is, wondering if he is a fox or coyote. When told his name the response is very often, 'Oh, Wiley Coyote'! The "f" word (fox) is often expressed by those first greeting him.
