History of the Irish Wolfhound

Instinctively Irish Wolfhounds are hunters. They were bred to hunt and kill wolves, which once roamed the woodlands of Ireland. The last wolf was killed in County Carlow in 1786, after which the Irish wolfhound breed, went into decline. Though a natural hunter, the Irish Wolfhound is a gentle and loyal hound. With being the largest dog in the world (1), and commanding so much power, it is very important that they are well cared for and well socialised from a very young age.
