The Irish Guards’ new mascot is set to partake in his first ceremonial engagement on St Patrick’s Day.
Irish Wolfhound Turlough Mor, also known as Seamus, will be inspected by Lieutenant Colonel Rob Money and Sergeant Major Andrew Hughes as part of the regiment’s St Patrick’s Day celebrations on March 17.
The one-year-old wheaten-coloured dog, named after ancient Irish King Turlough Mor of Connaught, will also be presented with a shamrock at the Cavalry Barracks in Hounslow, west London.
