Irish Terriers are bred to become companions, hunters, and guards, so they are naturally spirited, good-tempered, adaptable, and alert— not to mention curious, devoted, plucky, and reckless. It may sound wonderful, but living with it may not always be easy. Irish Terriers are also smart, strong-willed, independent, and can be scrappy around their fellow dogs. Physical/mental stimulation, as well as firm discipline, is a must. As people-oriented dogs, though, Irish Terriers can be friendly around strangers. This breed isn't for a single owner.
Training, socialization, and heredity affect temperament. Nice-tempered pups are playful, curious, and sociable around people. When getting a dog, choose pups with an average temperament— those who are neither aggressive nor timid. Meeting the pup's mother or father may help you assess if he's nice-tempered and comfortable to live with. You may also meet his other relatives to evaluate how they'll turn out in adulthood.
Any sign of illness exhibited by your pet should require a visit to your vets Cherry Hill, NJ for proper medical attention.
