     Good Gentles,
     
     While we are discussing dog breeds, how about Irish Wolf Hounds?
     
     I was informed by someone (who really wants one) that though they are 
     very big @200lbs they are sweet, obedient,non slobbery, non shedding 
     and soft to the touch.  Also, that they are not hyper in anyway (I 
     have a Dalmatian and I dread the thought of what a dog four times her 
     size could do to my house).
     
     So, is it all true?  Is there more to the breed that I should know.
     
     And he tells me that this breed is period to the early middle ages.
