The Irish Wolfhound was actually used as a dog of war by the ancient Irish.  The dog was originally bred to be this tall in order to tear people off of their horses in battle, though I doubt that they ever do this anymore.  The term wolfhound comes from the fact that this breed was near extinction in the 1800s, so to boost its numbers, it was bred with wolf.
