Mania's Arcania has a way of taming the Oily Coat Wolf so that it doesn't lose its color open taming.  Looks like this works for Alliance only, or at least only for Horde with plenty of Alliance friends to help.  It also may be removed by Blizzard at any time and you can't take the wolf to Arena without losing the coloring.
