Leonaș The Stray Beast

            😺I will begin the grimoire with stories with the legend of a lonely dog, who was betrayed by humans. Leonaș was a hybrid, his mum was a German Shepherd, whereas his dad was a wolf. His mum was lost in the forest and when she returned, she gave birth to him. He was sold at a young age to a military base due of his size so he can detect landmines. 

 😿His testes' results showed a 45% match with a lone wolf. Because he had his own personality and he lacked the capability to detect landmines or he did not want to do this, and because he couldn't be tamed through violence, he was then sold to a simple man from the countryside. This specimen was an extremely intelligent predator, which knew only one side of humanity. Although very agressive and hard to handle at first, due to the dominant, but gentle side of his master, he managed to become a house dog. He was a dominant character and he didn't accepted animals that were lower on the food chain than him. He directly attacked a lamb or a calf of the family if he saw the opportunity to catch them out of the herd. As a personality, he had an antipathy against humans, but a strong sense of duty. He was very strong and had an intelligence that far succeeded the one of an ordinary German Shepherd.  Because he was a hybrid, he didn't had dysplasia. The wolfdog had the capability to feel humans' intentions. He didn't hesitate to strike down anybody that had bad intentions towards his master or family. 

His story has a sad twist, when, because of certain circumstances, the master who showed him the good side of humanity decides to give him to a shepherd so the dog can protect his herd from wild boars and wolves. Feeling betrayed, sold and abandoned again, Leonaș killed seven lambs without eating them, and he laid them down one after another. He also killed two wild boars and a wolf that were on the herd's territory and arranged them next to the other animals. Because of this event and because he was a threat, the shepherd decided to hire two hunters to kill him. Leonaș went in the woods and he was taken down with the help of two hunters and five helpers. He caused significant damage to all these people, and his master never arrived on time to calm him down. This is the sad story of an exceptional dog that most of his life felt betrayed. Humans feared him because of his natural endowment and his incredible intelligence and this made him a target. Don't judge a book by it's cover.
