Members of the Health Group have a wealth of knowledge of rearing, living with and caring for Irish Wolfhounds, both as companions and in the show-ring, and provide the group with decades of experience behind the scenes as well as taking on the day-to-day duties. Although the main focus is on the heart screening program we also provide updates and collaboration opportunities to various ongoing research projects and ensuring that health issues are monitored and up-to-date advice and information guides are available on our website. Keeping current with breed health and planning ahead, the group meets quarterly and is supported by breed clubs.
