Any dog with wolf in him is going to be creative and a challenge.
I had a dog who was a pointer/wolf hybrid mix and he was scary smart. He would use chairs as ladders to get stuff on high shelves — and even push the chair back once he had been caught.
My current dog is a border collie/lab mix and she’s a good combination of smart and obedient. She’s always looking at me for instructions, although she can get into quite a bit of mischief if I don’t keep her challenged.
One of my very favorite dogs was a wolf hybrid/huskie mix. Beautiful smart guy although pretty independent.
Not much of a guard dog, except for his size and somewhat intimidating appearance. Unless there was unauthorized wild life around the house, lol. Wolf hunter instinct, I guess. I once had skunks take up residence under the house and he nearly dug a hole thru the floor trying to get to them.
As a very young pup, he jumped up and grabbed a bat in his mouth. The vet allowed me to quarantine him myself. I would sit on the floor with him in my lap in front of the stereo and rock him back and forth to the music. All of his life he had a great “Stevie Wonder Sway” when music was played.
I miss that ole guy!
