Calf

n.

Heard in Leitrim

A dog so large you could saddle it for a small adult.

In use

The calf is some bayshte of a dag, if this yoke had come at the young buck Setanta there'd be no legend of Cuchulainn!

Posh English

That hound is such a colossal beast that had it confronted young Setanta, the legend of Cuchulainn would never have transpired.
