Would you like to meet a baby wolfhound?!
Would you?!?!

Before I get told off please know I have wanted this breed for years. I spent about 18 months researching, attending shows, meeting potential breeders, asking questions, seeking advice and generally finding experts to support me. This puppy is very much longed for and not bought off some internet puppy farmer.
So a picture?!

She's been home just over a week. I wanted to post a picture from the start but it's been a roller coaster of a ride!

Aww! Gorgeous. More pics please!

How big is she? I love those old breeds, wolfhounds, deerhounds, otterhounds. I've often thought about getting a rescue greyhound but I work long hours so no dog for me any time soon. Stupid work.

Bubble2bubble · 10/12/2016 08:57

Oh Wolfie, always my dream dog as a child. Fabulous. We need pics of her standing up please, just to see how big?! And her name? :)

Jenda · 10/12/2016 08:57

Oh my goodness she is gorgeous!! More photos and details please!!

Wolfiefan · 10/12/2016 08:58

I'm guessing she weighs about 30lb already! She's certainly heavy to lift. (Not had all her jabs so can't walk her yet.)
Outing myself here but she's an Isla. I'm in love!!

Oh my! I'm in love too. Having recently got our dream pup who is also a rare breed I share your passion. It took me years to find our pup buts it's been so totally worth the effort.

PacificDogwod · 10/12/2016 09:41

Oh, Wolfie, she's gorgeous! Smile

My (3 year old but skinny as we cannot get any weight on him, so still has his 'racing weight' rather than pet weight) greyhound weighs 32lbs - no way is she 30lbs! Shock
She must eat you out of house and home.

Gorgeous breed. And she is so cute... squee!!

sotiredbutworthit · 10/12/2016 09:44

Gorgeous!!!

CMOTDibbler · 10/12/2016 09:44

She is gorgeous!

I have two 14 week old greyhound pups coming this afternoon as our first stint as foster carers. We only said we would be happy to foster pups (due to child and cats) on Thursday afternoon, so its all a bit of a whirl Smile

PacificDogwod · 10/12/2016 09:48

OMG, CMOT, how exciting!
Your first duty is of course to pop some pictures on MN Grin

BastardGoDarkly · 10/12/2016 09:49

Naaaaaaw!!!! I would love one of these one day :)

Wolfiefan · 10/12/2016 09:50

Pacific I told you I would introduce her! She was over 28lb when we picked her up and getting bigger by the minute!
And I will be pestering you all for advice I'm sure!!

Awww-my favourite breed! So noble, and those eyes! I wish we had the time, space and money for one! Stoopid kids and job Xmas Grin

Soubriquet · 10/12/2016 10:46

Oh I'm so glad you've found one!!

Does she have a name yet?!

Cherrysoup · 10/12/2016 10:49

28lb? Dear lord, how will she fit on your knee?! Utter cuteness, I love the breed.

Thewolfsjustapuppy · 10/12/2016 10:58

I just did the conversion, your pup is the same size now as mine will be when she is fully grown. I'd love a wolfhound but couldn't shoe horn one into my suburban home.

TheMortificadosDragon · 10/12/2016 11:01

Fabulous dogs.

Cherry we've come across people who solved that problem by having a wirehaired dachshund to boss around complement their wolfhounds.Grin

Wolfiefan · 10/12/2016 11:03

She is very much a lapdog!! I'm not working and kids are older.

Meet my pup!
