Got a good amount of painting on this done today, but now I'm drained XD I also changed the composition by moving the dog more to the left so more of the shoulder is visible. Probably going with a very simple background, after all, I just love the way the current background color goes with the coat.

SORRY FOR THE LATE REPLY OML

Anyways here ya go :)))

SEAN HEADCANONS

the guy snores like a truck. Like middle-of-the-night dad snore that can keep a sleep-deprived owl up. Very deep sleeper defo, once he’s out he’s OUT.

almost drowned once because he jumped into a river whilst drunk (he thought it was like ankle-deep but it actually went up to his waist)

Whenever he has a cold it’s always dramatic. Like he’ll hack and cough as if he’s got the black plague, it’s crazy.

his jokes are solid ass. he thinks he’s the funniest guy in the world but his jokes either never work/are too complex/don’t make borderline sense

coughs like a 50 year old man you cannot convince me otherwise

tried to steal some poor bypasser’s horse when he was a teen, he ended up awkwardly trying to shove the rider off whilst hanging off the side of the saddle, got kicked off and nearly got his nose broken in the process

if he *could* write, it would be like trying to translate ancient runes. his handwriting would be so loopy and unstable he probably would have to manually remember what he had written (ofc its canon he’s illiterate but wishes are wishes yk)

“fuck about and find out” kinda person

Gives Ennis head/behind ear scratches constantly

Names anything and everything. Random stick he found around camp that’s a weird shape? George. Rock that’s shiny? Finn. (Once tried to knock someone out with ‘finn’ after they tried to rob him, it went exactly how you think it went)

sorry if these are a bit ass, I don’t really have an ‘in-depth’ kind of view on sean’s lore so if they are a bit inaccurate please correct my shite :]]

Wikipedia chose the exact right image for the Terrier page. Look at it! It's perfect!

It's from The book of dogs; an intimate study of mankind's best friend by the National Geographic Society, published in 1919. I cannot describe how flawlessly it captures the chaotic nature of terriers. The Welshie is doing all the work, the Irish is telling him to go faster, the Wire Fox is supervising, and the Smooth Fox is just here for a good time. Perfection.

The Kerry Blue Terrier: A Charming and Versatile Breed

The Kerry Blue Terrier, also known as the "Kerry," is a unique and highly versatile breed with a long history and distinct characteristics. Originating in Ireland, the Kerry Blue Terrier was initially bred for a variety of tasks, including herding, hunting, and guarding. Its adaptability and intelligence make it an excellent companion for active families, individuals, and even those involved in competitive dog sports.

Physical Characteristics

One of the standout features of the Kerry Blue Terrier is its striking blue coat, which starts as black at birth and gradually changes to a soft, silvery blue as the dog matures. Their coat is curly, dense, and non-shedding, which makes them a popular choice for people with allergies. Regular grooming is essential to keep their coat in top condition, and many owners choose to have their Kerry Blue professionally clipped or trimmed.

Their size is medium, standing between 17 to 19 inches at the shoulder and weighing 33 to 40 pounds. The Kerry Blue’s body is muscular, compact, and well-balanced, providing them with the stamina needed for various activities. Their expressive dark eyes and alert expression reflect their intelligent and active nature.

Temperament and Personality

The Kerry Blue Terrier is known for being confident, playful, and friendly, but it also has a strong independent streak. They are highly loyal to their families and can be affectionate towards children and other pets when properly socialized from an early age. However, they tend to bond closely with one or two family members and may be reserved or protective of strangers.

Despite their protective nature, the Kerry Blue is not aggressive by default. Early training and proper socialization are key to managing their protective instincts and ensuring they grow into well-behaved, well-adjusted companions. Their intelligence makes them highly trainable, but they can also be stubborn at times, requiring a patient and consistent approach to training.

Exercise and Care Requirements

Kerry Blue Terriers are active dogs that need regular exercise to stay healthy and happy. They enjoy walks, playtime, and can excel in dog sports like agility, obedience, and even herding trials. Their high energy levels mean they are best suited for active families or individuals who can provide the mental and physical stimulation they require.

Because of their high intelligence, Kerry Blues can become bored quickly if not given enough to do. This boredom can lead to undesirable behaviors, such as excessive barking or chewing. Therefore, it's crucial to ensure they receive plenty of attention and mental challenges.

Their curly coats, though low-shedding, require regular maintenance to avoid matting. Brushing a few times a week and occasional grooming sessions will help keep them looking their best. Additionally, regular veterinary check-ups are important to ensure their health, as the breed is prone to certain health conditions, such as hip dysplasia and allergies.

Conclusion

The Kerry Blue Terrier is an excellent choice for active families and individuals looking for a versatile and intelligent companion. Whether as a family pet, working dog, or show competitor, this breed is sure to bring joy and excitement to any home. If you are considering adding a Kerry Blue Terrier to your family, be sure to invest in training, socialization, and regular grooming to maintain its health and happiness.
