If huskies being the closest breed of domestic dog to an undomesticated wolf is any indication: I totally believe it. Those dogs will do literally anything for a tasty treat. And so would I, for that matter.

Krapolis is a meh show, but I watched it all for Matt Berry and Richard (won't even try to spell, Moss from IT Crowd)...

But their episode on the domestication of wolves was amazing.
