I'm Aileen S., the breeder behind Paxon Kerry Blue Terriers located in Nassau County, NY. My Kerry Blue Terriers excel in various performance venues and most importantly in their forever homes as beloved family members. I breed for health, proper conformation, temperament, and coat. This breed has a smaller gene pool, and I do all I can to expand it while keeping to the standard of the dog. I prioritize researching health and longevity when looking at a possible breeding pair. I am a preservation breeder that takes my job seriously. I can't wait to be a part of your puppy journey!
Q. & A. with Aileen
Why did you start breeding?
I have been breeding these beloved dogs for over 50 years. I wanted to do my part to better the breed. My breeding program strives to maintain the unique characteristics of Blue Kerry Terriers while placing an emphasis on producing puppies of superior health, temperament, and conformation. I am a true preservationist breeder and love what I do!
What makes your program special?
I am a professional handler of Blue Kerry Terriers. I do not breed my dogs unless they are fully healthy and genetically tested. I am dedicated to always having responsible policies when it comes to breeding, socializing, and training my pups. I want the very best for my puppies and their forever families. I hope to help connect you with one of my puppies!
