I get the impression the breed is more popular in the North East than other parts of the country. |
Its interesting I have heard from Many people that the Northeast (NJ North) has the most beautiful solid wolfhounds in the world, and that many of the dogs here are nicer than what is coming out of Ireland.... Is this true? Well I don't know but i have heard this from more than a few people. There are some gorgeous dogs in PA and NJ as well as MA where I got Natalie... I had been stalking hounds for a long time and loved the hounds from my breeder so we waited... the breeder told me that she only gives show dogs to her friends so I vowed on that day to be her friend. That I would make an absolute pest out of myself so that in the end she felt comfortable placing a dog with me and two years later I got Natalie... so yeah I waited years for her. A year before I decided on a breeder and two years once we actually started waiting. Worth every minute, there are hounds all over but I htink because of the quality of the hounds there might be more here than in other places. I am taking Natalie out to show in Montana this summer and there are no hounds out there....
