The Irish Wolfhounds are highly well-built, powerful and sturdy canines that hail from Ireland. These pooches are very tall and they have an intimidating appearance but from the inside, they are extremely kind-hearted, sweet and gentle in nature.

The Irish Wolfhounds have a mediocre availability and demand in India. These pooches can be a decent option for a pet for a family as they are very loyal and faithful to their human parents and close ones and they are great with small kids as well. But the main reason for the low demand of these canines in the country might be their high price and maintenance cost and their bad tolerance to heat and high temperatures which means they would require a lot more care and attention from their parents especially in the summer season.

Given below is the average price list of the Irish Wolfhound puppies which are available in various variations.

  • Irish Wolfhound Puppy price (Basic): ₹60,000 to ₹80,000

Factors Affecting the Irish Wolfhound Price in India

Now there are various factors that can affect the original Irish Wolfhound price in India. These factors are as follows:

Type

There are three different price categories for an Irish Wolfhound (in India): Basic, KCI Registered and Show Quality.

  • Basic category includes all those dogs and puppies that are not registered to any kennel club including KCI. A basic Irish Wolfhound puppy can cost anywhere around ₹60,000.
  • KCI is short for Kennel Club of India and if a dog belongs to KCI Registered category, then it means you will get a canine whose quality is up to the mark. You will also be able to participate in KCI dog shows if your canine is registered and also you will get a KCI registration certificate.
  • A Show Quality dog means that the canine is closest to the ideal as mentioned in the Breed Standards. If you are not planning to participate in dog shows with your pooch, then it does not matter all that much whether you buy a Show Quality dog or a Normal Pet Quality one.

Physical Attributes and Characteristics

The Irish Wolfhounds can have a lot of different coat colors such as Black, Tan, Cream, Grey, Red, Silver, Wheaten, White, Blue and based on the rarity of the coat color, the overall price of this canine may vary. The rarer the color, the higher might be the price of the pooch.

Age & Gender

Young dogs and pups are generally sold at a higher price as compared to old or fully-grown canines. Also, it is seen a lot of times that male dogs are sold at a bit of a higher cost as compared to their female counterparts.

Pure or Mix Breed

The cost of a purebred Irish Wolfhound is higher than the mixed-breed as there are lesser chances for a purebred puppy to develop hereditary health problems as compared to the one that is mixed-breed.

Availability and Location

Dogs that are readily available in a region tend to cost less compared to the canines that are harder to find in that region. In case of Irish Wolfhounds, they have a subpar availability in most parts of India and their overall price is also on a fairly higher side especially compared to some other exotic breeds.

Also, canines that you get from a nearby location tend to cost less compared to the pooches that are available at a faraway location. This is because when you get a dog from a faraway location, extra charges such as traveling expenses also gets added to the overall price of the canine.

Reputed Breeder

Also, it is commonly seen that reputed and popular breeders tend to charge a bit more for a dog compared to other breeders who are not very well-known or reputed like them. This again affects the overall price of a canine.

Miscellaneous Factors

  • Champion Bloodline: If a dog belongs to a champion bloodline, meaning any of its predecessors (forefathers) were given the title of Champion in an official dog event, then its price can also go fairly high.
  • Microchip: The price of a dog can also increase if it has been microchipped by the KCI. The extremely small pet microchip helps in providing a permanent ID for your pet.
