Kerry Blue Terrier Puppies

The Kerry Blue Terrier is a charming breed with roots that trace back to Ireland, where they were originally bred for work on farms and in the fishing industry. These delightful dogs are medium-sized, with a unique curly coat that sets them apart. As you consider welcoming a Kerry Blue into your home, you will find that their affectionate nature makes them a wonderful companion for families, especially those with young children. Their playful demeanor and friendly disposition towards other dogs and even cats ensure a harmonious household when socialized appropriately.

The Kerry Blue Terrier origin can be traced to County Kerry, Ireland, where it was first bred in the 1820s. The Kerry Blue Terrier was bred to control “vermin” including foxes, rabbits, foxes, Otters, Badgers, hares and rats.

The physical attributes of the Kerry are unique to its breed, 17.5 to 19.5 inches tall and its weight ranges between 29 to 40 pounds. The color pattern is quite distinct, the coat is soft, wavy and black at birth, and as it progresses with age the coat turns blue, then blue-gray as it matures.

The Kerry Blue Terrier is a loyal effervescent dog breed that can quickly switch to a strong-headed character in the defense of its territory.

They are very attached to their owners and friendly with kids but can turn in an instant on other dogs or perceived threats.

In order to promote the peaceful coexistence of Kerry with other Dog breeds, socialization should be initiated between species.

The Kerry Blue Terrier thrives well in the home environment. They are very accommodating with kids and they thrive well if they are raised together alongside family members. Other habitats include open family land, waterfronts, and open yard space.

The Kerry Blue Terrier can be vicious to other dogs indoors or outdoors, so great care must be taken by its handler to prevent it from attacking other dogs, this behavioral characteristic should never be tolerated by its handler.

The Blue Kerry Terrier requires a lot of daily exercises, its exercise routine should be closely monitored by its handler and overfeeding should be guarded against.

Playing fetch or ball throws is an ideal sporting activity to engage in. Also, long walks daily should be incorporated into its daily exercise routine. The Kerry is a highly adventurous dog and these exercise routines can greatly improve its self-esteem.

Great care must be taken while grooming the Kerry. The thick texture of their wavy coat requires constant grooming and maintenance. A professional groomer should be a go-to option to provide the “Kerry” with that perfect trim.
