On 29th September, after delays due to poor weather, our wonderful volunteer Gemma Ridge completed her skydive for the rescue.

We are delighted to announce that she was able to raise an amazing sum - every penny of which goes towards the operation of our rescue.

Gemma shared her thoughts after the incredible achievement, and we could not thank everyone enough for supporting her all the way.

In this video we hear her story of how she first became involved with the rescue, and what the breed means to her. 

Judith also introduces us to her 'pack' of rescues. This video is one we know you will love, and its always a joy to hear from other Kerry owners, especially with the valuable experiences Judith has to offer.

“Hi all, I'm doing a skydive for the Kerry Blue Rescue. I'm absolutely petrified of heights, so this is going to be a real challenge for me. The jump is scheduled for Sept 19th 2021 and Bruce has asked not to participate! Spoil sport. :-) All donations go to the rescue dogs so please show your support. It will also help me jump knowing I have raised funds for this great cause.”

Hi All.

We always sent a newsletter to our supporters and donators to keep them up to speed with anything happening in the rescue and with the dogs we are currently helping to rehome.  

As it's half way through our year and with the unusual circumstances we're all facing, we get it pertinent to upload the latest report on to the website and our Facebook page. 

thanks you so so much to you all for your continued support of the KBTR, without you all we wouldn't be able to continue to help Kerry's in need. 

Kind Regards
The KBTR team. 

One of the rescue's brilliant supporters, Stephanie Israel, has handmade and donated these two adorable reversible dog coats to raise funds for the KBTR. We can't thank Stephanie enough for her kindness. They're just adorable.

We are going to hold a silent auction. Please email Emma on [email protected] stating your winning bid and on which coat (Coat 1 or Coat 2) you'd like to bid on. Emma will then collate any bids sent in and will inform the KBTR Facebook page daily of the current winning bids. The auction will close on 15th March at 12:00 noon. 

Thanks as always for your kind support, we really appreciate it. All monies raised will only ever go towards helping future Kerry's in need.  If you have any questions about the coats, please just email us to ask.
​
A massive massive thank you again to Stephanie, you really are a star and your continued support of the dogs and the rescue really is greatly appreciated.

Coat number one is reversible, one side has 4 Kerry Blues & 4 shamrocks applied on. The other side is a Scottie dog fabric. It is machine washable at 40 degrees.

​It's not a waterproof coat but one for those colder days in Winter when your dog needs a bit of extra warmth. The coat does up by two srips of velcro under chin and two strips under tummy.
​
Measurements are 44 cm across centre back of coat & 47 cm across centre width of coat.
