Gentleman Diarmuid Dubh

Introducing Diarmuid Dubh - Duggie for short.

He is a beautiful example of a Kerry Blue Terrier - strong and sturdy with a lovely stand, and an absolute Gentleman. He is our treasured family pet (we have 3 kerries) who loves walks and the sofa in equal measure, cuddles, a strange addiction to teddies and all little people - he is actually our 8 year old's dog and he never leaves her side.

He has been sperm tested 3 times with great results and is a proven stud dog - he recently became father to a HUGE 7 pup litter, bred by me to our lovely girl bluebell.Some of his adorable puppies are featured in the photos.

Mating can take place on site, and we have the experience to ensure the safety of both dogs, or AI can be organised locally by me if preferred. He is very gentle thus would suit maiden or experienced bitches.

The fee includes 2 matings within 48 hours. Also includes a free mating on next season if bitch does not become pregnant first time.

He has a great pedigree -Dad is Volzhzkiy Arkos Octavian At Cushlagorm and dam is Irisblu Alana with champion lines in his grandparents and great grandparents. All his vaccinations and de-worming is up to date.

Fee or pick of the litter can be discussed.
