Kerry Blue Terrier

Health

Full of vitality, the tireless pet has health to give and sell and will probably spend his life unharmed by diseases. Keep check-ups up to date only as a precaution and to exclude any possibility of cataracts, skin cysts and patellar dislocation.

Curiosities

In Ireland, its country of origin, it was used as a hunting dog for small animals and some types of birds. In addition to hunting, it was also common to be trained as a herding dog.

Intelligence

Training is very important to help the animal spend energy and also to educate it. It's the type of breed that needs a lot of early socialization to become more tolerant of other pets and professional help is a good thing to help hone its skills. Gentle approaches are always indicated, because despite the bravery he can have with other dogs, he is a sensitive dog in the family relationship.

Temperament

Expect the Kerry Blue Terrier to have one personality with the family and a completely different one when another dog is around. It's just that, instinctively, dogs of this breed do not tolerate their similar species and get into trouble easily, so it is not recommended that they share the house with other pets. The furry one learns quite easily and responds best to a good-natured approach. He is very good with children and loves to spend hours having fun with them.

Lifetime

The tireless puppy lives, on average, between 12 and 15 years.
