How much grooming does he need?
Depends how you want him to look. Although show dogs don’t look groomed, that rough-and-ready hairstyle is actually the result of many hours’ work stripping and shaping the coat. An ungroomed wolfhound really looks ungroomed, but even if you opt for the shaggy hearthrug style, he will still need a weekly brush. Then there’s bathing – twice a year is enough (unless he likes rolling in slurry) but you’ll probably need wellies – and a sense of humour.
