If it is an Ethiopian wolf, then it is one of the rarest animals on earth, and I suspect that many organizations would be more than willing to stump up for the testing.

I’d be genuinely concerned that they would take my “dog” if it ended up being an endangered species.
Exactly. I'd suggest enjoying its company, and keeping it quiet.

But wild animals, and wild animal hybrids can be a bit unpredictable, once they reach adulthood.

There are other canids in Africa, like Cape Hunting Dogs, Jackals, and foxes, that can be pretty badass (and some are endangered).
