Introduction

Regal and commanding in presence, the Irish Wolfhound is a gentle giant known for its kindly temperament and impressive stature. This breed is characterized by a rough coat, often in grey or brindle shades, and a distinctively tall and muscular build. Despite their size, they move with surprising grace and are often quite calm indoors. Known for their intelligence and loyalty, Irish Wolfhounds require regular exercise to maintain their health but are adaptable and can thrive in various living environments with the right care.
