Sporting wavy blue-gray coats that need regular grooming sessions often, and a charming impish expression, the lively Kerry Blue Terrier has roots in herding livestock across Ireland. This versatile breed requires disciplined leadership, brisk daily workouts, and advanced consistent training to satisfy their lively natures and quick movements. The Kerry Blue Terrier is wary of strangers and requires consistent socialization to offset its natural protective instincts. The Kerry Blue is a typical Terrier with a stubborn streak that enjoys vigorous runs and interactive play with their favorite humans, who need to closely guide them through their mischievous and trouble making tendencies.
