This came up on Discord, and I thought it was with sharing more broadly:

Anyone have advice on handling a U-wolf PC? Anthropic bias is heavy. ... ok, got a coherant backstory from them, Third Generation from initial uplift, not all Aunts/Uncles are in the S5 range, and lifespan improvement is generationally incrementing upwarsd. All of the pack that raised them are at least S4+, Moms are Foresters/Wilderness managers, Dad is a radio astronomer and hobbiest fisherman. Walter Brown (the PC parawolf), is an informal coordinator using a BCI to keep connected to networks, and taking advantage of a very high Dunbar Number to maintain lots of distinct relationships.

I really hope to see more of this kind of thing.

I love when animals are intelligent but still animals. I think people underestimate their resourcefulness. I had a dog that could open the bedroom door at my old apartment. It didn't even have a handle, just a knob. But the house had settled in such a way that if you just turned the knob about 10 degrees or gave it solid jiggle the latch would release, and the door naturally opened an inch or so. So when a firework would go off or something, or it just got late enough that he was tired of napping on the couch, he'd sit up, trot over to the bedroom and stand up, and swipe the knob with a paw, and then just nose his way in and put himself to bed.

He was like a roommate. He was such a cool guy.
