The Irish Wolfhound is a giant among dogs, known for its impressive stature and gentle nature. These gentle giants can reach heights of up to 86 cm at the shoulder and weigh in the region of 54 to 70 kg. Originally bred for hunting wolves (hence the name), their temperament today is more akin to a laid-back couch companion with a heart as big as their paws. Expect a coat that's rough and wiry, usually in shades of grey, brindle, or fawn. On the downside, they have a relatively short lifespan of around 6 to 8 years and can be prone to health issues like dilated cardiomyopathy and hip dysplasia. If you're looking to add one to your family, check PuppyList or Tradingpost for availability and prices, which can range from $2,000 to $4,000 for a pup, with used or older dogs varying widely.
