4. Temperament

The Irish wolfhound is not a guard dog. Its nature is that of a companion who loves spending time with its human family. Adult dogs are good around children, but as puppies, they tend to be rambunctious and playful and could easily but inadvertently knock down or hurt a child. Irish wolfhounds are normally calm, gentle, and responsive once they reach adulthood. This sensitive breed thrives in a loving home environment.
