    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Daisy Okas Date: March 13, 2003 Phone: 212-696-8342 IRISH DOG BREEDS CELEBRATED IN SPIRIT OF ST. PATRICK’ S DAY New York – In celebration of St. Patrick’s Day on Monday, March 17th, 2003 the American Kennel Club celebrates seven purebred dogs of Irish heritage. Additional information including the full breed standards, links to Parent Club web sites and video clips of each breed, is available at www.akc.org. The Glen of Imaal Terrier -- "There is a glen, Imaal, in the Wicklow mountains that has always been, and still is, celebrated for its terriers." This 19th-century reference is to the beguiling Irish breed we now know as the Glen of Imaal Terrier. Initially bred to rid the home and farm of vermin, and hunt badger and fox, these rugged dogs also had a unique task for which they were expressly designed to perform; they were turnspit dogs. The turnspit was a large wheel which, when paddled by the dog, would turn a spit over the hearth -a canine propelled rotisserie, if you will. Game and spirited with great courage when called upon, otherwise the Glen is gentle and docile. Although generally less easily excited than other terriers, the Glen is always ready to give chase. The Glen is a member of the Miscellaneous class. The Kerry Blue Terrier originated in Ireland and is a hardworking breed that has been used to hunt on land and water, to guard homes and farms, to kill rodents, and even to herd and drive sheep and cattle.

September 23-24, 2017 We have IQ, Junior, Senior and Master Certification Tunnels and Judges! (Judges are pending AKC approval) All dogs six months of age or older from the following AKC Recognized Breeds are eligible to participate in Earthdog Events. Australian Terrier Manchester Terrier Sealyham Terrier Bedlington Terrier Miniature Bull Terrier Silky Terrier Border Terrier Miniature Pinschers Skye Terrier Cairn Terrier Miniature Schnauzer Smooth Fox Terrier Cesky Terrier Norfolk Terrier Welsh Terrier Dachshund Norwich Terrier West Highland White Terrier Dandie Dinmont Terrier Parson Russell Terrier Wire Fox Terrier Glen of Imaal Terrier Rat Terrier Yorkshire Terrier Jagdterrier Russell Terrier Lakeland Terrier Scottish Terrier The following information (between the red lines) was copied directly from the AKC Website (Earthdog tab): Dogs of these breeds recorded with the Purebred Alternative Listing Program/Indefinite Listing Privilege (PAL/ILP) or dogs with Conditional registration are eligible to participate. Spayed and neutered dogs are eligible to participate. Monorchid or cryptorchid males are eligible to participate. Bitches in season are not eligible to participate. Blind and/or deaf dogs may not participate. Dogs with Limited Registration are eligible to participate. The purpose of non-competitive earthdog tests is to offer breeders and owners of small terriers and Dachshunds a standardized gauge to measure their dogs' natural aptitude and trained hunting and working behaviors when exposed to an underground hunting situation. The non- competitive program begins with a basic introduction to “den work and quarry” and progresses through gradual steps to require the dog to demonstrate that it is willing to perform the required tasks, including seeking and locating its quarry underground.
