The Kennel Club Standard (right) lists the features which define the Irish wolfhound,
and is the measure against which a dog is judged in the show ring. |
We've illustrated the Standard to show how we think a wolfhound should (and in some
case, should not) look, and for those of you who, like us, know that your wolfhound
just doesn't stack up, we've taken the liberty of doing a little re-writing.
We've included in our version some points which definitely don't appear in
the original, but which we respectfully submit the Kennel Club may wish to consider
for inclusion when next they review the standard . . . . . . click on the text link below - and enjoy! |

Ch Ewbacca (!) makes a valiant effort - but the whole business is just soooo boring! |
