`According to ancient Brehon law, ownership of #Irish Wolfhounds was governed by status. Only the nobility were permitted to own the hounds. The Fili, a classification of bard and poet, was limited to the possession of only two hounds, for example. Contrast this with the legendary hero of the Fianna, #Fionn mac Cumhaill, who famously loved the Irish Wolfhound. He was said to have owned in excess of five hundred!

#Fionn Mac Cumhaill’s sister, #Uirne, was cursed by a jealous rival and turned into a bitch who gave birth to Bran and Sceolan. Yellow-footed and red-eared, Bran became Fionn’s favorite dog, so fast she could overtake flying birds.

#FinnMacCool’s sister, #Uirne, was cursed by a jealous rival and turned into a bitch. After whelping Bran and Sceolan, Uirne was restored to human form, but her twin children (variously described as daughters or sons), remained trapped in canine bodies. Yellow-footed and red-eared, Bran became Fionn’s favorite dog, so fast she could overtake flying birds.
