Sweet-tempered, patient and thoughtful!
The first examples of this breed were created by crossbreeding large British dogs with coursing hounds from the Middle East. These dogs were legendary for their large size and hunting abilities.
Irish wolfhounds are sighthounds, which means they are able to use their keen eyesight and fast speeds to hunt. They are known for their very dignified, calm, and courageous temperament.
Irish wolfhounds are large dogs and are thought to be the tallest breed of dog. Males are at least 32 inches tall, but normally closer to 36 inches, and females are at least 30 inches tall, but typically closer to 33 inches. A fully grown male weighs around 160 pounds and a fully grown female weighs around 130 pounds. A 2-month-old puppy typically weighs around 24 pounds.
