THE ACCESS

Exclusive, private access to the Sanctuary

This is an exclusive private experience for your group only, including guided access around the Sanctuary’s enclosures led by the owners themselves.

THE LEARNING

An in‑depth look at wolf leadership and social behaviour

The program focuses on education about wolfdogs, domesticated dogs, and wolves—explaining hierarchy, differences in community behavior, and what leadership can and cannot teach us about social strength.

THE PHOTOGRAPHY

Numerous opportunities to photograph the Arctic Wolfdogs

Throughout the visit you will have the chance to photograph the Wolfdogs from both outside and inside enclosures, with the schedule allowing time to watch and capture their interactions closely.

What the day feels like

What the experience feels like

Over an extended, up to three‑hour visit, the owners guide you through the Sanctuary so you can quietly observe pack dynamics and learn why individuals act as they do. The extra‑long format is designed for sustained watching: preparation and instruction time are included, and the pace is set by your group’s interest.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this experience is right for—and who should take caution.

Adults and older teensWell suited for adults and teens who can follow instructions and enter enclosures if 15 or older; underage participants must be supervised by a parent or legal guardian.

Families with younger childrenFamilies with children under 15 should expect that younger kids must stay accompanied outside the enclosures; read the Wolfland rules carefully before booking.

People seeking hands‑on contactNot ideal unless you book the separate interaction add‑on—this program does not include physical interaction with the wolfdogs as standard.

Quiet observers and learnersA good match if you want to quietly observe animal behaviour and learn about social hierarchy; however, note the age and supervision rules for enclosure access.
