The Swedish Association of the Irish Glen of Imaal Terrier
was formed in 2004, and it is Swedens official breed club for
the Irish Glen of Imaal Terrier.
The club aims to actively present and work for one of the
numerically smallest breeds in Sweden and in the world
- the unique terrier of the Glen of Imaal.
In this context it is important to, in different ways, create
and invite to community and enthusiasm for as many as possible.
Also contacts with clubs and other interest groups outside Sweden
are important elements of this work.
The Swedish Association of the Irish Glen of Imaal Terrier
also has the purpose that within the framework of
the Swedish Kennel Club and the Swedish Terrier Club statutes
consecrate specific interests for the Irish Glen of Imaal Terrier breed.
Silence. No word spoken. The Glen has seen history.
Its wild mountains and its dog. Time stands still. The Glen, its terriers have survived time. A little dog,long in body, a family friend.
All, all are gone, the Scottish Highlanders who manned the Black Banks. 1798 fast forgotten.The terrier lives on. The mountains and their Glen are at peace.
But the Glen of Imaal Terrier speaks. I am an Irish Breed, I have known St.Patric. I was here in 1798, I knew Micael Dwyer.
All, all are gone, I still live on. The Irish Glen of Imaal Terrier.
