Why cant I charm a wolf!?

Ok, I got rid of my first animal just so I could have a wolf pet. Well I go to charm a wolf and my character won't do it. My character keeps falling down. I keep doing the spell over and over and my character won't stop falling. I am level 4 is there a reason why it won't let me have a wolf as a pet? I dont get it!

wolves in pre-searing ascalon have a "break charm" skill. you can charm snow wolves when you get to the shiverpeaks.

Oh ok thanks, going try that right now.

Well, somebody was able to charm one. I was beat-down by a charmed wolf in the academy PvP, the first time I went through it this weekend.
