The only disadvantage of being the 'owner' of an Irish Wolfhound is their short lives: an average of only 7 years.
As with other breeds, such as the Irish Setter, you need to be very careful about your canine pal's diet/food intake regime and the timing of their exercise in order to avoid a potentially fatal condition called BLOAT.
Irish Wolfhounds are very reduced in numbers, so in breeding that perpetuates certain health problems, such as cancer can be an issue.
Choose the breeder, blood lines, etc, carefully.
The key is to make lots of enquiries, and develop personal contacts, about this gentle giant!
And expect to pay a very significant sum for the right dog! |
