The Irish Wolfhound is the mascot of the Irish Army and is the tallest breed of dog in the world, standing seven feet tall.  They are not a bulky dog since they needed to be graceful enough to catch wolves and elk but they still need a house with a large fenced in yard to run.  With their size also comes many heart and bone problems so the breed only lives six to eight years.  Although they need a large home, they do not need a large amount of exercise and their shaggy coat is a breeze to groom.  They are also a friendly, responsive breed so they make good family companions.  The Irish Wolfhound is truly a large, loving dog.
