I think the dholes should win. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nx8DJiliIocHere a wolf struggles against 4 coyotes. Dholes will be larger and more robust and more manueverable than the western coyotes as well as more killing power. Wolf can't catch them, so it would take a while, but dholes will take the wolf down

Well, wolves are certainly fairly durable - I think, although it would be close, the wolf would win. All it needs to do is injure a dhole, and it can tank some bites before going down.

All canids are durable to some extent, and because of the trenchant heel, I'd put the dhole's damage output to be similar to the wolf's. Yes, the wolf is more durable in regards to size, but the dholes have a mobility advantage, so im not sure if the wolf can catch one, before the other two tear it up

Well, true. You do have a point. Still, wolves are pretty explosive and fast when they have to be. Maybe a size comp can help.

Sure, the wolf is outnumbered, but even if the dholes barely have a higher combined weight, the wolf won't give up and will win.

Because of a trenchant heel, the offense output between a dhole and wolf should be similar despite the size difference, and the manueverability of the dholes ensure that the wolf would be unable to catch one without exposing his flank to the other two dholes. Again refer to my wolf v coyote interaction video
