BRIEF HISTORICAL SUMMARY:

Like the other Irish Terrier breeds it is assumed that the Kerry Blue has been in the country for centuries, but, once again, because of its humble origins as a rat catcher and all-round farm dog, there are few, if any references to the breed before the 20th century. The first probable literary references to the Kerry Blue dates from 1847 the author describes a bluish slatecoloured dog, marked with darker blotches and patches, and often with the tan about the legs and muzzle. This blackish-blue Irish terrier was supposed to be prevalent in Kerry but it has been developed in other counties as well. The blue didn』t make its first appearance on the show benches until 1913, and the Dublin Blue Terrier Club was formed in 1920. The Kerry Blue became quickly so popular as a sort of mascot for Irish patriots that there were actually four clubs promoting its interests for a short time, and between 1922 and 1924 these clubs sponsored no fewer than six shows and six field trials. By 1928 this impressive balanced terrier with its beautiful soft blue coat became popular worldwide and its reputation as an excellent working and companion dog agreed with the breed assessment as ? well nigh perfect ?.

歷史梗概：

和其它愛爾蘭梗犬種一樣，據說凱利藍梗在該國已有數千年的歷史了，但是，又是因為其做為捕鼠犬和全面用作農用犬的低微出身，在二十世紀以前僅有為數不多的關於該犬種的參考資料。關於凱利藍梗的第一部參考文獻可能要追溯到1847年，作者描述到，該犬為瓦藍色，身上有深色斑點和斑塊，腿和口吻通常有棕褐色。

這種藍黑色的愛爾蘭梗在凱利郡比較流行，但現在在許多其它國家也同樣變得流行起來。直到1913年，該犬種才第一次在展示中公開露面。都柏林藍梗俱樂部(Dublin Blue Terrier Club)於1920年成立。凱利藍梗迅速變得流行起來，被愛爾蘭的愛國人士奉為吉祥物，以至於在很短時間內已有四傢俱樂部在推廣它們了。從1922年到1924年，這些俱樂部發起了不少於六場犬展和追獵試驗。到了1928年，該犬種便憑藉其極佳的平衡感和華麗柔軟的藍色被毛風靡全球，其做為優秀的工作犬和陪伴犬的聲譽得到了犬種評價機構的認同，稱之為「近乎完美」。
