Welcome...
The Federation of European Irish Wolfhound clubs was founded in 1994 with the intention of fostering cooperation between those clubs that utilised the common Irish Wolfhound standard of the FCI. Some twenty years later we anticipate that Irish Wolfhound clubs outside of Europe will join with us; no longer will we be exclusively European so our logo and name must change to reflect our wider world.

Dear Friends,
This weekend Goos, Marcello and myself went to Ireland as it was the club show of IWCI. This had two reasons. First we wanted to apologize for the inconvenient that made them change
the date of their show and thank the board of IWCI for their understanding.
It appeared that the French club, which is in charge of the next congress, put the dates for this congress on 9th and 10th of June, this due to the venue that was only available at that date.
This caused majors changes. Many thanks to the Board, the Irish Kennel Club and our judge Tuula Savolainen for allowing all these changes.
But the most important reason for our coming is that we wanted to celebrate with you our decision to make Jim Behan the patron of the brand new FIWC before EIWC, together with Betty Murphy.
We tried to put this up together with the board of the Irish club and I I’m so happy that this comes true.
During the pause at noon we presented the new flag of FIWC and than gave this wonderful gift to Jim who was overwhelmed as he didn’t know a single word about our plans.
So now we have two patrons, or better as we say honorary presidents, Betty Murphy and Jim Behan, and we are grateful for all their advise
and help and hope that both will stay as our mentors for long time.
Monette Daubenfeld,
Vice-Chairman

Irish Whispers - 34,90 Eur (shipping fee included).
Gwen is far from suspecting, when purchasing a faded engraving in the lair of a bric-a-brac trader, that this is the first decisive step which will lead her to discover
herself an all-consuming passion and involve her on a strange and disorderly quest across Ireland.
An Ireland of invasions, wars, Gaels, Kings, traditions, struggles, Cromwell, Gentlemen Farmers and a lifestyle unique in the world.
A haunting Ireland, an island swept by winds and passions from which you never return unscathed, and which, since the dawn of time, has borne one of its proudest symbols: the Irish Wolfhound.

Une histoire d'Irlande, des premières invasions à nos jours, mise en parallèle avec l'évolution et le rôle de l'un de ses symboles, l'Irish Wolfhound.
Une histoire d'Irlande, liée à celle de l'Europe, mais surtout dépendante de celle du Royaume d'Angleterre.
Une histoire d'Irlande, enfin, qui est celle des hommes, des familles, et d'un peuple tout entier.

Dear Friends,
Thank you for this opportunity to extend good wishes to all our member clubs. We appreciate your work in keeping the website updated and interesting.
A special word of thanks to our Board members, some of whom have had a lot of extra work in the past year due to some changes, eg expansion from EIWC to FIWC.
The life blood of the FIWC has been the very successful Congresses hosted by member countries over the years. It is our opportunity to come together, to share,
to discuss and enjoy seeing at first hand, the hounds of our member clubs. The FIWC Congress 2018 in France promises to be a great success. I look forward to seeing you all there.
We are indebted to IW WORLD for keeping us well informed regarding European Club shows. As a suggestion, perhaps we could create more networking opportunities, example;
if we had a slot on the FIWC website where Clubs could list contact details to newsletters or any other publications they wish to share.
This year in Ireland we had a full and active year. You can find details of some of these activities on this PDF document.
Sending good wishes on behalf of the Irish Wolfhound Club of Ireland and the FIWC.
Gerard Clarke,
President
