For thousands of years, the Salish woolly dog resided on B.C. Now, blankets woven from the fur of this extinct dog are on display at the Museum of North Vancouver until early July. The museum will exhibit two of these blankets alongside other woolly dog artwork by Salish artists, including Chase Gray, Sarah Jim, and Eliot White-Hill. Wyss said Loychuk was researching woolly dog hair and found the blanket in a thrift store in Langley.
