At Dionaea I pride myself on my unwavering commitment to keeping the Kerry Blue Terrier breed alive. With a steadfast dedication to preserving and promoting the breed standard, my breeding program is focused on producing dogs that epitomize correctness, type, temperament, and health.
 

Correctness: The purpose of my kennel is to create future generations of the Kerry Blue terrier that are testament to the breed's standard, adhering to the guidelines set forth by the Kerry Blue Terrier parent club and the Canadian Kennel Club. Our breeding program will adhere to the distinctive traits and characteristics that define the Kerry Blue Terrier, from their striking blue coats to their well-balanced proportions.
 

Type: My breeding program places a paramount emphasis on maintaining the breed's true type. Each generation will be carefully curated to ensure that our Kerry Blue Terriers possess the quintessential qualities that distinguish them from other breeds. From their keen expression to their sturdy build, our dogs will exemplify the essence of the Kerry Blue Terrier breed.
 

Temperament: Beyond physical attributes and health,- I prioritize the nurturing of sound temperament. Kerry Blue Terriers bred are known for their intelligence, loyalty, and affectionate nature. Whether as beloved family companions or skilled working dogs, Kerry Blues should exhibit a confident and adaptable temperament that is a hallmark of the breed.
 

Health: The health and well-being of any dogs we produce are of utmost importance. I conduct all necessary and optional health screenings and genetic tests recommended by the Kerry Blue Terrier Kennel Club of Canada to ensure that my breeding stock is free from hereditary diseases and genetic abnormalities. By prioritizing health in my breeding program, I strive to produce Kerry Blue Terriers with  longevity, enabling them to thrive for years to come.
 

In conclusion, my breeding program is founded upon a steadfast commitment to excellence in correctness, type, temperament, and health. With each generation, I uphold the legacy of the Kerry Blue Terrier breed, producing dogs that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also exemplary in character and vitality.
