Breed Feature of the Week: Irish Wolfhound

The Irish Wolfhound is an ancient breed of dog originall bred for hunting wolf, hence the name. They are the tallest dog breed in the world. They have been said to be the equal of a lion in the past, but are gentle in nature towards humans. Their motto is "Gentle when stroked, fierce when provoked." This particular Irish Wolfhound is Liam, who lives in Pittsburgh. Liam is a mellow dog who loves to go on ambling walks and greet all his friends every day.



Any Blogging Irish Wolfhounds out there?

New Feature (Breed All About it!)

We are starting a new (maybe weekly) feauture of having a post about a particular breed, and then inviting any blogging dogs of that breed to respond so we can make new friends. You don't have to be a pure breed to respond, if you share some of the characteristics and think this may be a dominant breed in your background, you qualify. The first one is coming up shortly, on Irish Wolf hounds, so stay tuned!
