Wolf Emoji Kitchen
Wolf debuted on 1 November 2022 with 182 pairings and has roughly doubled since, reaching 358. The February 2026 release was its second largest ever at 48, so it is still being worked on. Even so, 261 partners produce nothing, which puts wolf among the thinner sets for an animal people search for this often.

Dates read from the Emoji Kitchen sticker assets Google serves through Gboard, which stamp each combination with the release that introduced it.
Steady growth without a breakthrough
Fourteen releases, a solid debut, no single moment where Google decided to finish the job. Wolf is the middle case between deer, which peaked on day one, and shark, which got a 250-sticker release out of nowhere. The recent 48-pairing batch is the largest addition wolf has had since launch and suggests it is on an upward path, but at the current rate complete coverage is years away.
Wolf and dog share a problem
Wolf has 358 pairings. Dog has 356. The two emoji are drawn as similar head-on animal faces with pointed ears, and they have ended up with nearly identical coverage, which is unlikely to be coincidence. A forward-facing animal head leaves the artist very little room: the eyes, snout and ears all have to survive the combination for the emoji to still read. Side-on or abstract shapes do far better, which is the pattern across the whole dataset.

Wolf Emoji Kitchen FAQ
How many wolf emoji combinations exist?
358 of 619 possible partners, so 261 return nothing. Wolf has been supported since November 2022 and grows steadily rather than in large jumps.
Is wolf different from the dog emoji in Emoji Kitchen?
Yes, they are separate emoji with separate sticker sets, though their coverage is nearly identical at 358 and 356. A combination available for one is not automatically available for the other.
Are new wolf mashups still being added?
Yes. February 2026 added 48, the largest wolf release since its debut. That is a meaningful batch rather than a trickle, so the set is likely to keep growing.
