Are Irish Wolfhounds good for first-time pet parents?

No, Irish Wolfhounds are not usually the best choice for first-time pet parents. Irish Wolfhounds are one of the largest dog breeds, and their size alone can be daunting. They require lots of space to live, and it can be challenging for first-time pet parents to provide adequate exercise for such a large breed. Additionally, Irish Wolfhounds are intelligent but independent and sensitive, so training might be difficult for novice pet parents.
