The Kerry Blue Terrier Club of St Louis, KBTC-StL, was established in 1976 by a small group of Kerry enthusiasts with the terrier drive for competition. The KBTC-StL is a chapter club of the USKBTC breed parent club. 2006 is our 30th anniversary and we will be hosting our 25th annual specialty show. The KBTC-StL mission was to promote the healthy competition of the breed in AKC events. Over the years the mission has evolved into the breed support it is today. Our members work together to mentor new Kerry owners and exhibitors. We are the mid-west guardian of the breed dedicated to education and preservation of the breed.
