The Irish Wolfhound 
Among the symbols of early Celtic history, few possess 
greater interest to the student of pagan and Christian Ire¬ 
land than the Irish Wolfhound—the national dog of 
Ireland. 
Of all dogs this giant hound of the Gaels has the most 
romantic past. A fine type of valor and beauty, he is 
inseparably associated with the history, romance and 
legends of Ireland from the earliest recorded days. His 
fame is celebrated again and again in the cycles of Finn, 
while the history and old laws of Ireland mark the value 
in which the hound was held. 
A good descrip¬ 
tion of the Irish 
Wolfhound was 
given by Father 
Hogan about 
twenty years 
ago. He traced 
the breed back 
through each cen¬ 
tury to the year 
391 A. D. and 
said that in that 
y*e a r Flavianus 
upon his return 
to Rome from 
Ireland present¬ 
ed seven inn 
mense dogs to 
the Roman consul Quintus Aurelius 
Symmactus to provide barbaric 
amusement in the arena. It is re¬ 
corded that all Rome viewed them 
with wonder. 
In the first century, the King of 
Ulster and the King of Connaught 
offered the King of Leinster 6,000 
cows and a chariot and horses for a 
famous Wolf dog and finally went 
to war over its possession. 
In 930 A. D. the laws of Wales put 
the value of the Irish dog at twice 
the value of a work horse and affixed 
a penalty of its full value. Through 
hundreds of 
years these 
dogs were the 
most valuable 
presents that 
could be made to 
Royalty. With 
the elimination 
of Wolves early 
in the eighteenth 
century, the use¬ 
fulness of this 
great dog began 
to dwindle and 
about 60 years 
ago had almost 
been forgotten. 
At about that 
time Capt. Graham, an English sports¬ 
man, secured a few specimens from 
Sir John Power of Kilfam and with 
judicious out crossing, brought back 
the Irish Wolfhound to its original 
high standard. 
Fine male dogs weigh from 120 to 
160 pounds and measure 30 to 36 
inches at shoulder. Females are 
slighter in build. They have a lov¬ 
able disposition and absolute loyalty 
is a strong characteristic. In fact 
the Irish Wolfhound is a real dog 
and one that may well be proud of 
its ancient lineage.
