A pack of hungry wolves is not going to be deterred by a couple of dogs. You'd need a pack as large or larger and dogs are expensive to keep.

Y'know there are good reasons that wolves (and coyotes and bears and big cats) have been driven out of our habitat, and it's not because they make toasty boot and hood liners, or cool native headresses.

We play these predator adjustment games at our peril.
