Kind of terrier or wolfhound (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

irish

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'kind of terrier' is the first definition.

'wolfhound' is the second definition.
(Irish wolfhound is an example)

(Other definitions for irish that I've seen before include "Hi, Sir, become a national" , "From Dublin, perhaps" , "Hibernian -- breed of 4" , "like Wexford" , "Relating to Ireland" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
