Q. & A. with Gigi
Why did you start breeding?
Cavan Kerry Blues was established by my mother in 1979. I am dedicated to continuing the Cavan legacy by producing high-quality puppies and doing whatever I can to preserve, protect, and improve this incredible breed so that it can continue to thrive for generations more to come!What makes your program special?
Cavan Kerry Blues is a premier breeder of Kerry Blue Terrier puppies. We have decades of experience with the breed and can provide extensive knowledge and guidance to any family looking to bring home one of these phenomenal dogs! We have produced several show champions, including over 30 conformation champions and multiple obedience-titled dogs. Many of our dogs have become exceptional show prospects and champions, but all of them have become excellent family dogs and lifelong friends!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
