GoodBoy Dog Recovery captured a wolf-dog hybrid spotted in Bristol after it managed to evade both animal control and the Pennsylvania game warden, according to a staff report from 6abc.

Colleen Bell runs the nonprofit which specializes in capturing lost and abandoned dogs, especially those that are hard-to-find and hard-to-catch. This was her first time capturing the rare hybrid.

“He managed to get her contained in a schoolyard,” she said. “ The plan was to put out a box trap to lure him with raw meat. That didn’t really work out.”

Luckily, she had a backup plan, the big soccer net in her trunk.

“Between the chief and police and myself we were able to use that to pin it up against a fence and I was able to get something on him,” she said.

Bell noted that it is at least 80 percent wolf, adding that the species is rare to the area and predatory in nature.

“It’s my understanding that it is not legal to have them, you have to have a permit to have them,” she said.

The hybrid animal was taken to Howling Woods Farms in New Jersey, where it is doing well.
