“What about twitter?” is a question that can use the same three words as an answer. The EFG were the first Glen of Imaal Terrier group to get a blog and now those three words in the heading have been used twice. Are we up to it? Are we hip, cool and modern enough? The [...]

There is a new terrier book under production in the United States. Betty-Anne Stenmark is in overall editing charge (and will probably do the Dandie segment). Bruce Sussman has done the Glen of Imaal Terrier. It won’t be out for a while because it is amajor work but do keep your eyes open!

Glen of Imaal Terriers were one judge short for the 2009 show list. The missing one, the Glen Association, can now be filled in. Sir of the day, or should it be ma’am, is Jane Withers.
Tails……AGAIN!!

An interesting question came in regarding the Code of Best Practice [...]
