Read to Irish Wolfhounds for “Wolfie’s Tales” at the Irish Cultural Center

This week on The Morning Show, we took a field trip to the Arizona Irish Cultural Center in downtown Phoenix to meet two of the most beloved ambassadors of Irish heritage — Riley and Tipper, the magnificent Irish Wolfhounds behind the heartwarming program “Wolfie’s Tales.” 🐾💚

Hosted at the Irish Cultural Center & McClelland Library, Wolfie’s Tales brings the magic of Irish storytelling to life — with a little extra wag in every tale. These gentle giants, alongside their loving owners, share stories of Irish folklore, friendship, and community, helping kids and adults alike connect through culture, compassion, and curiosity.

During our visit, we learned how this unique program bridges history, literacy, and love for animals, all while preserving Irish heritage here in Arizona. Whether you’re a lifelong dog lover, a culture enthusiast, or just looking for some feel-good storytelling, this episode will leave you smiling. ☘️
