Aside from the normal website search - i first saw the Irish hounds and the scottish elkhound at a scottish highland games event. I've also seen them at celtic festivals. the hounds are part of the competitions and also compete elsewhere in coursing events. i saw some videos of the coursing and its really impressive.
they are really beautiful animals and very very soft and snuggly. i wouldn't mind one either! its just that small house syndrome.
