  • Irish Terriers will not necessarily get along with any other dog. They will fight if challenged by another dog and will not back down.
  • Irish Terriers can be stubborn.
  • They are terriers and will dig if your yard has moles or other rodents.
  • Irish Terries can be barkers.
  • Irish Terriers must have regular opportunities to burn off their energy.
  • Irish Terriers need mental challenges such as training and play to thrive.
  • Obedience training is highly recommended. The "come" command can be difficult to teach.
  • They can be dominant and attempt to take over the household. You must be consistent and teach them that you are in charge at all times.
  • To get a healthy dog, never buy a puppy from an irresponsible breeder, puppy mill, or pet store. Look for a reputable breeder who tests her breeding dogs to make sure they're free of genetic diseases that they might pass onto the puppies, and that they have sound temperaments.
