I have seen that show before, and others like it, and I think some people should be told to re-home their dogs and get a Furby instead.

I've always loved Irish Wolfhounds (sighthound also), ever since I saw one on Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show some years ago. No WAY a Wolfhound would be happy in this place and I wouldn't subject one to such a small space, but the image of one napping on my couch gave me a huge smile.
Someday...
