I was until I saw a pack of African Painted Dogs go after a raccoon that fell out of a tree into their paddock.
Having three couch potato Cavalier King Charles Spaniels I have to wonder that there could even be a smidgen of wolf left in them. That is, until I saw them work as a pack to chase, corner and kill a few squirrels last summer. After recovering from that mess I thought - yep, there's a tiny little bit of wolf left in there, if you squint you can see it.
I would note that APDs were never domesticated, but several African tribes use their hunting system to great effect.
