To the person who asked if you could bola these. Yes you can, I tamed two low leveled wolves for breeding recently using bolas. Warning: you do have to hit them directly, if you hit their head, tail, or legs it doesn’t count.

Direwolves are easily my favorite tame on the island, they are extremely good battle creatures especially in packs. Breeding and imprinting (which I did) as well as leveling them up means you can take on nearly everything. It’s extreme mobility and small size means you can use it for most caves, as well as collecting tons of chitin and meat along the way. This is a 9/10 tame for me, due to its relatively easy taming process (bola then tranq) and its extremely versatile usage.

No saddle needed.

They can sniiff out hidden animal and also can sniiff out explorer nots and artifact

Like if it helps

Had 2 females and one male and bred them. I have 6 wolves now and they took down a bronto in like 5 seconds. ( with the howl )

Getting a TLC patch in March 2018 to add howl that will initiate the pack bonus for 5 minutes, will be able to sniff out players or creatures with less than 50% health, and will be able to detect explorer notes.

Vicious and lightning fast, the Dire Wolf is a great all-around mount for adventuring and attacking. I highly recommended to bring packs of Dire Wolves for any hostile situation. Whether it be kill Alphas, or raid bases, it's size, agility, and damage make for a deadly beast.

You can put a cloth hat on them and they can be pirate dogs

Tame a some max levels and do some breeding then they can tear down a brontosaurus in like barely 5 seconds with the pack buff
