Irish Terrier Photos

If you want to see some Irish Terrier photos, we can show you what they look like here.
Irish Terriers are surprisingly powerful-looking dogs for such a small size! They’re muscular, with a rich red coat that’s considered the breed standard color. Their tail is long but in many countries, it’s docked to achieve the breed standard. Some countries don’t allow docking, however, as there have been movements against this practice. They have a double coat, and the outer side of the coat is wiry, giving them a rough feeling.
Irish Terriers are people dogs. They naturally want to be around their family and are very loving and devoted to them, so you won’t find a more loyal friend. Something to watch for, however, is that they’re very active dogs. Your Irish Terrier will love the great outdoors and if you’re looking for a partner to lie around on the couch with all day, this dog may not be the one! However, if you want a hiking buddy or someone to run around outside with, this is the perfect dog.
A Family Dog
They are, however, not known to be great with other animals. They tend to have a dominant streak when it comes to other dogs, and their hunting drive makes them a poor choice to be friends with small animals. If your dog is going to be your only pet, they might be a great choice. If not, you should exercise caution.
