Unfortunately there remains 2 Kerries that require new homes.
They are all individually owned and each owner has a legitimate reason for placing these dogs. They are 1 Dog and 1 Bitch.

The New Green Star system will take effect from our Club Show and will be reviewed in 2009. Seven Green Stars will now be required to bring a dog to its Irish title, one of which must be gained after the age of 15 months. Reciprocal agreements will be in place with countries who allow Champions to earn just one CC in their country. We will now also adopt the 10 Group Eurpoean System and a Champions Class will also exist.

The IKC and the KC, London have agreed to CC's being awarded in Ireland to our Nine Native Breeds to celebrate the World Winners Show in 2009. This show will be held in the RDS the same weekend as the WW Show. Further Information available.

Niall Kavanagh
17/08/1981 - 12/08/2006
It was with great sadness we learnt of the untimely and tragic death of Niall Kavanagh following a car crash.
Although Niall was new to the Show Scene he had already made an impact due to his warm, friendly personality. His enthusiam for the breed, his hunger to learn and his enjoyment of his dog and the show scene was evident.
We would like to extend our deepest sympathies to the Kavangh family and relatives and his many friends. Niall will be missed!
Niall was laid to rest on Thursday 17/08/2006,
his 25th birthday.
