Thanks Kaytana, Jmoore & Ferlin. I do LOVE the merles. Haven’t named them yet, but the merle on the right that I traded for was one of my top favs. Although I love the merles, I’m not sure that I want 2 so similar so I haven’t decided yet whether I’ll keep both or trade/sell the guy on the left. There were so many wolves in this batch that I would’ve loved to have.
i went to michaels and didnt see them and the clerk said she didnt think they had them. trying hobby lobby next haha.
I bought mine at Michaels last year when they were clearing them out (70%) off. Maybe they weren’t planning to restock them? I’ve seen them on ebay and Amazon.com both.
One of my trades arrived today & it was worth the wait :love: Here’s the merle that I traded for my silver wolf. He’s got bi-colored eyes. I’ll try to get some better photos outdoors tomorrow when our arctic freeze ends.
And, here’s my pack(?) of wolves. Merle on the left was purchased from a forum member. He’s got golden eyes & has more beiges & less white than my merle from my trade (on the right).
Well, horrible luck with my camera tonight. I only managed a few grainy photos but here he is. Shall definitely be keeping him. I love how he looks with his pack mates 🙂
Matryyoshka, Wow! Love that silver/lavendar wolf. Great catch on the grab!
My second wolf finally showed up after travelling the country! He must’ve been getting tired of all that east coast snow & decided to come home.
Pretty grey with gold eyes, taupe beige highlights on the ears, chest & rump. There are lots more wolves that I like more, so he’ll be up for trade.
I’m usually pretty patient (really!) when it comes to waiting for grab bags to arrive, but the tracking info on my wolf is just ridiculous. It went from Portland, to Los Angeles, to Toronto, then BACK to Los Angeles (???), then on to Louisville, then Hamilton, then Toronto again. It is finally in Canada Customs. 😛 Seriously, what the heck? I think maybe my wolf got scared of the cold weather in Toronto and tried to escape back to LA. 😉
But on a positive note, everyone’s wolves look amazing!
Well, at least they didn’t ship yours to the east coast with the massive snow pileups affecting deliveries! For the life of me, I can’t figure out USPS’s routing system.
I ordered a second wolf when Windstone lifted the limit, and my second wolf apparently decided to tour the country before coming home. Last I checked tracking he went from Oregon to Maryland (I guess he wanted to see all the snow out east) where’s he’s been stuck for days. I paid for Priority Mail 2-day & he was supposed to be delivered Saturday, but he’s still in Maryland with no update on estimated delivery. Isn’t it great that USPS charges extra for Priority Mail delivery services! :((
You’re lucky – my first Wolfie is still playing around in all the snow in Maryland! I hope he gets delivered Wednesday, he didn’t make it here yet. It’s been nice looking at all of everyone’s lovelies though… 🙂
I can’t figure out why they sent them out to Maryland, when there’s more direct routes that didn’t get the heavy snows. I suspect the snows are part of the delays but there’s really no reason they should’ve went from OR to MD instead of local sort facilities. We weren’t having snows here, just brutal cold which shouldn’t affect deliveries.
My tracking finally got updated today & wolfie maded it to Illinois, so I’m hopeful I’ll see him today or tomorrow.
Hopefully you’ll soon see yours also
Meet my GB Wolf. He is definitely one that I would have overlooked, if I was only going by the class photos. A hidden gem, IMO. He’s dark and mysterious with gold eyes, and from the back, he’s all black. His smirk says: “Oh Hi…we’re lost, can I use your phone? Is that a cat? Can I pet him?”. Oddball says: “no, no, no don’t trust him…He can’t even dial numbers on the phone, and he tried to “pet” me this morning”

”Not to be trusted 🙂
Gorgeous wolf, Angelika! He does look like he shouldn’t be trusted around family pets. 😉

Keep in mind the East Coast has also been hit very hard by winter storm after winter storm. It’s not necessarily the reason your wolf has detoured and been sitting in Maryland, but there could be a bit of a backup of things at some sorting facilities due to weather.
Sure, but there’s no reason the package should’ve been routed out East when I live in Illinois. We have sorting facilities here in Illinois where we haven’t been getting the snow (just polar vortex cold) impacting routes. I’m afraid that now he’s probably snowed in out east & can’t get out.
I feel bad for the folks out on the east coast because they’re getting the same weather pattern we had last year in Illinois – one big snow following another for the entire winter. It’s easy to run out of room to pile up all the snow. This year in Illinois, we’ve had very little snow (just one big storm & a few small ones). But this dang frigid cold is too much, especially for February.
Oh well, no choice but to wait to see when he gets delivered. I need to learn patience. I get too excited about Windstones. 🙂
