They haven't seen each other since they were 4 months old. I don't know if dogs can sense that they are related. i've been thinking about it actually. I wanna say yes, they can tell by scent and pheromones (smelling similar because they are brother and sister). i don't know if these scents are as strong if they are fixed because i assume hormones control them. In the wild wolves don't usually mate if they are related. i believe they only do it if their options are extremely limited.
as far as winston getting along better with his siblings its a toss up. If he's anti-social then he may not want his siblings around either. he may tolerate them more but still not want them around.
