The
Fox Terrier
The
Wire and Smooth Fox Terrier In Ireland
There
are so many great wire dogs that came out of Ireland
over the years.
Blackdale
Kennels: If you follow the Irish show circuit
you will see that the blackdale kennels have always
managed to bring out some cracking type dogs, they
always have, it doesn't matter what the event, the
blackdale kennels turns out some of the best in the
world, must be pulling them out of the black magic
hat. The Blackdale kennels at one point in time had
some of the best lakeland terrier in the world, I
believe the kennels are starting to get back into
the breed, but continue to produce some of the finest
wire fox terriers in the world.
Galsul
kennels: who in my mind gets little or no
credit for his efforts within the breed, but yet in
saying that they are without any doubt one of the
true breeders of quality wire fox terriers in Ireland,
the Galsul and the Blackdale kennels on occasion team
up to swap and exchange dogs within programs, but
John Galvin has some cracking dogs equally as good
as the blackdale dogs, the reason for not seeing many
of the Galsul dogs is that John Galvin likes to keep
close to his own neck of the woods and makes the occasional
trip to Dublin's St.Patricks day championship show,
it was always a pleasure to see what he was going
to take out of his terrier boxes, because these were
the only dogs that were good enough to present a challenge
to the Blackdale dogs.
Robinstown
Kennels: a relatively new up and coming smooth
kennel that has produce some nice little smooth's
in the past and has a few new shining stars to campaign
in 2010.
