the tallest breed of dog in the greyhound group. The Wolfhound has an amazing history as an ancient military dog and is the centerpiece of many legends. It is believed that Irish Wolfhounds originally appeared in Ancient Egypt 3,000 years before our era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, dogs of this breed were introduced into Ireland by Celtic tribes some 300 years before Christ. The Celts needed such dogs to protect livestock from wolves, which were very numerous at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the Middle Ages to the 17th century, Irish wolfhounds were extremely popular. Dogs were presented as a gift or payment for services rendered. For example, in 1641, several wolfhounds were presented to the French Cardinal de Richelieu. These amazing dogs were imported into many countries, where they were also highly valued. The dogs were then involved in hunting deer, bears, and other large animals.
