Long before it became a mascot or a symbol, the Irish Wolfhound was bred for purpose — to hunt, to guard, and to serve. In this episode, we trace the history of one of Ireland’s most iconic native breeds. From the days of the Gaelic aristocracy to near extinction, and through its careful reconstruction in the 19th century, the Irish Wolfhound has endured as more than just a dog — it is a living link to Ireland’s past.
Whether you're interested in animal heritage, cultural history, or simply want to understand how this gentle giant survived where others didn’t, this episode presents a clear, factual look at why the Irish Wolfhound still matters today.
