In 1935, he bred a male German Shepherd (german: Deutscher Schäferhund, nl, Duitse herdershond) to a female Eurasian grey wolf (''Canis lupus lupus'') from Siberia. He then bred the offspring back with German Shepherds to derive a dog with one quarter wolf blood. The result was a dog that was not useful as a working dog but as companion that is close to nature. The Dutch Kennel Club recognized the breed in 1975. To honour its creator, they named this dog the "Saarloos wolfdog". In 198 ...
