Hello!
And welcome to the web home of Ierne Irish Wolfhounds. We are a
small, exclusive kennel near Raleigh,
NC.
We are dedicated to preserving the correct type and functional
beauty of the Irish Wolfhound. We have a strong commitment to
health and longevity and have begun participating in the CHIC
certification program with all our hounds, whether or not they
are a part of our breeding program. If you are interested in
purchasing any purebred dog regardless of breed, you should check
out the Canine Health Information Center website and learn about
CHIC certification. You can follow this link to learn more.

While on our way back from the Rocky Mountain
Irish Wolfhound Association Specialty this fall we stopped in St.
Louis to visit our good friends Carolyn Dean and Maureen
McCreery. Carolyn graciously agreed to take this picture for me
of our three generations, from left to right is Grandmother Ch.
Ierne’s Aine Ni Fear Mor, Daughter Ch. Ierne’s Sorcha
Ni Shirey, JC and Granddaughters Ierne’s La Folie and
Ierne’s Stella Artois. >Carolyn is the Editor in Chief of the IW World Magazine, you can see Carolyn’s work and learn more about Irish Wolfhounds worldwide by visiting their website and subscribing at www.iwworld.com. The beautiful collars the girls are wearing were made for them by their loving Aunt Maureen and you can find similar collars for your own hounds at Carolyn and Maureen’s online store www.fuzzywumpets.com. These have been the best collars, both durable and comfortable, and the tempur-pedic pet beds have been a big hit at our house

Ierne's Stella Artois Ch
Taryn Tate of Limerick, SC x Stella is out of our May 2007 litter and has been a pleasure to own and show. She was awarded "Best Puppy" at the 2008 IWCA National Specialty by Judge Kathleen Kelly, Nutstown Irish Wolfhounds, Ireland. We thank Mrs. Kelly for recognizing the quality of this young hound. She has earned both of her majors... one by going Best of Breed over Specials and only needs a few points to complete her Championship. She is currently being shown on a limited basis. We have practiced Stella on the lure and will give her a chance to earn her JC at the 2009 Specialty. She will be CERF'ed and heart tested at the 2009 Specialty with the intent of completing CHIC certification in 2009.
Stella was shown at the 2008 Specialty in the Sweeps class by our son Sean. Sean is Stella's co-owner as well and did a beautiful job of showing Stella to first in her class. He even managed to beat out his Mom who was showing Stella's sister Norah. We would like to thank Steve Levan, Sweepstakes Judge, for his infinite patience and wonderful comments for both Stella and Sean in the Harp and Hound. |
