If you're considering bringing an Irish Wolfhound into your life, but don't have the means to adopt one directly, don't worry, there are options available.
Many reputable rescue groups have a network of foster homes and can help match you with a dog that fits your lifestyle.
Irish Wolfhounds are a large breed and require regular exercise and attention, so it's essential to consider your living situation before adopting.
You can also consider rehoming an Irish Wolfhound from a private owner, but make sure to work with a reputable organization to ensure the dog's safety and well-being.
Irish Wolfhound Rescue
If you're involved in rescuing Irish Wolfhounds, you can get financial help from the Irish Wolfhound Foundation.
The goal of IWF Rescue is to support rescue efforts by providing a vehicle for tax-deductible donations.
You can contact the group or individual in your area for more information on Irish Wolfhound rescue.
The Irish Wolfhound Foundation promotes the appreciation, knowledge, and understanding of Irish Wolfhounds by raising and allocating funds for research, education, and rescue.
To get financial help, you should contact the IWF at [email protected] before filling out the Rescue Grant Application.
The Foundation encourages and supports the rescue efforts of the IWCA, regional IW organizations, and individuals.
Rehoming and Adoption
If you're facing a tough decision and need to rehome your Irish Wolfhound, contact the breeder first - a reputable breeder will either take the hound back or help with rehoming.
Reputable breeders care about the welfare of their dogs and will work with you to find a solution.
If the breeder can't help, we're here to support you, providing non-judgmental help and assistance in finding a new home for your hound.
Please don't hesitate to reach out to us for support during this difficult time.
To adopt a rescue or rehome Irish Wolfhound, complete the questionnaire to the best of your ability and forward it to the address provided.
Our goal is to have more suitable homes available than hounds needing them, so your help is invaluable in making this happen.
We'll do our utmost to find a new home for your hound, and with your cooperation, we can make the rehoming process as smooth as possible.
