"The Irish Wolfhound, the biggest of all dog breeds, has an ancient history, dating back some 3,000 years. These giant-sized hounds were used for hunting wolf, deer and wild boar, and they were even used in battle to pull men off horseback. However, by the 19th Century numbers had dwindled, and following the Irish Famine of 1845, the breed almost died out. Fortunately, a revival took place, and today the Irish Wolfhound has a strong, enthusiastic following worldwide. This is the most comprehensive book to date on the Irish Wolfhound - indeed, it is one of the most impressive books ever published on a single breed. The Irish Wolfhound is traced through its checkered history to its emergence as an impressive show dog and a lovable, gentle companion. Extensive coverage is given to choosing and rearing a Wolfhound puppy, with particular emphasis on diet and exercise during the vital growing period. The Breed Standard is analyzed in detail, and there is expert guidance on training the Wolfhound for the show ring. Using her extensive experience, the author gives invaluable advice on breeding Wolfhounds, and there is a complete section on genetics, health care and breed associated conditions. Illustrated with more than 200 top-quality color photographs showing the breed in all aspects, this is essential reading for all Wolfhound enthusiasts."--Amazon.com

This is a story of a man married at 21 and getting into all sorts of trouble on the streets where he lived as a young man. A young man who could not accept the responsibility of a young wife, two daughters, and a mortgage. A man who acted as though he was still single. During those difficult early years his wife, Sue, stuck by him despite his hours in the pubs and night clubs. All this changed when they decided in the seventies to emigrate to Australia for a new life and a fresh start. John always had a love for dogs and was obsessed with the magnificent Irish wolfhound. His other passion was boxing; a sport he had been connected with since the age of eight. This book tells the story of a man whose life and that of his family changed dramatically. After owning and showing Irish wolfhounds on the Adelaide show circuit, John spent years of study and exams to become a licensed international dog judge. He also set up a boxing gym and represented Australia in Thailand. During these years, John-or Johny, as he had become known in the boxing world-appeared in a number of TV adverts along with extra parts in movies and mini-series including live commentary for Foxtel boxing and local TV. In addition to that John made trips all over the world judging the wolfhounds. John and Sue, now retired, live on a beautiful twelve-acre property in the Adelaide foothills with their wolfhounds and run a small boarding cattery. John is still judging and taking small acting roles. As John puts it, "Life has been good to us."
