My "vote" is for the Mexican Wolf or Mexican Gray Wolf:

"The Lobo Life
The Mexican gray wolf, or "lobo," roamed throughout southeastern Arizona, southern New Mexico, and western Texas through the early 1900s, and south into northern Mexico until the 1980s. Today, around 60 wild wolves roam the headwaters of the Gila River in southeastern Arizona and southwestern New Mexico.
Mexican gray wolves are smaller than their relatives to the north—the gray wolves that roam the northern Rocky Mountains and Midwest. Weighing in at 50 to 85 pounds, Mexican wolves are about the size of a German shepherd and are the smallest subspecies of the gray wolf in North America."
Dead ringer! I'm glad you didn't have to defend yourself or your pups against them. They're rare... and beautiful!
