FAQs

Are Irish Wolfhounds good family dogs?

Irish Wolfhounds are generally excellent family dogs, known for their loyal, gentle, calm, and kind nature. They are patient and affectionate with children and family members but due to their large size, supervision around small children is important to prevent accidental injury. Their temperament makes them loving companions in a family setting.

Which is bigger, a Great Dane or an Irish Wolfhound?

The Irish Wolfhound is slightly taller than the Great Dane, with longer legs and a rougher, longer coat. While Irish Wolfhounds tend to be taller, Great Danes are often more muscular and heavier. Both breeds are giant dogs but the Irish Wolfhound generally exceeds the Great Dane in height.

How expensive is an Irish Wolfhound?

Irish Wolfhounds tend to be expensive dogs due to their rarity, size, and maintenance needs. While exact prices vary by breeder, lineage, and location, acquiring an Irish Wolfhound puppy typically involves a substantial investment running into several thousand pounds. Ongoing costs are also high due to feeding, healthcare, and grooming requirements.

What are the downsides of Irish Wolfhounds?

The main downsides of Irish Wolfhounds include a relatively short lifespan of about 6 to 8 years, their large size which requires ample space and supervision especially around children, and high maintenance needs such as daily exercise and grooming. They have a strong prey drive requiring secure fencing, are not good guard dogs due to their friendly nature, and mature slowly, retaining puppy-like behaviours for a long time.
