UPDATE from January 23rd, 2023: new model and texture and new coat variant added for the tundra grey wolf.

DISCLAIMER:
This update comes from a sad story that happened to me just a few days ago.
My husky Lara wasn’t eating for days after Christmas 2022, she only drank, I took her to the vet near my house, he asked me if she mated with another dog, I told him yes but I wasn’t sure if she was pregnant. Then the vet checked it all and confirmed that Lara was pregnant, and she didn’t eat because of having nausea as side effects of her pregnancy. So he told me to give her some pills to make her hunger kick in again, but it didn’t work. So I took her to the vet again, he checks and sees that things changed, and Lara could have had symptoms of a possible internal infection or kidney issues (without specifying and even telling it it’s serious or not either), and he concluded that I had to wait for 2 days for his colleague so he could have checked better with a computer that said vet doesn’t have as standard equipment. He even did blood and temperature test, telling me that her blood values were good and she had no fever. By the way, Lara was still active, she still had her energy to play with me, go out for a walk, she even pulled the leash with her powerful paws when she was seeing other dogs and wanted to know and play with them. Until one day, 2 days after the last visit at the vet, I found Lara on the ground breathing heavily, she puked everywhere in the yard. So I put her in my car to bring her to a vet clinic out of town (that vet stand wasn’t a clinic, and there are none in my town unfortunately), but when I get out of my car to take her, I found out something that shocked me so terribly that I still remember it now: Lara was dead. Then after all this happened, I talked about my story with some people and they told me that I did the “mistake” of going to a vet that, according to a lot of people who I told this story to, was nothing but a quack. If I only knew that, Lara would still have been there with me. And it sucks, it sucks in a way that you can’t even imagine.

Given that Lara, being a husky, looked a lot like a wolf, just like her breed, since she passed away I didn't see wolves the same way I used to before what happened. Every time I see a wolf, I think about Lara. And given that the tundra grey wolf among my mods is the closest animal to her, as tribute to her I decided to update it giving it a better appearance.
Seeing the tundra grey wolf, the wolf subspecies huskies originated from, including Lara, for the appearance it has now, for me seeing this wolf is like seeing Lara, it feels like Lara is still here with me. For this reason, along with the update of this mod, I also wanted to tell you about what went on behind the scenes, to tell you that making a mod can have a way deeper meaning outside of doing it for genuine pleasure and passion. And in my good faith, I hope you like it.



RIP Lara • August 26th, 2016 - January 5th, 2023

You will forever be in my heart.
