I never tamed wolves myself but i've seen videos of people using them for "auto" (afk) farms for spawners.. that said i'm using stone hearths myself for that and it works just as good.
Other than that I wonder how good Wolves go up against plains mobs, even if you have a horde of them. If someone can tell me if it's worth it then I might consider taming them.

As for Boar taming it's pointless considering how quickly they respawn in meadows and at some point (late and post iron age) you don't need their resources (or have too many) anymore anyway.
