BYRON‘S LEGACY !

After a mating - trip of about 2000 km we got a litter of Swedie and “Byron” Merrymac Lollapalooza on 19. July 1998. 2 dogs and 2 bitches, heavy, kicking and full of vitality were born on a Sunday afternoon. The 2males look very much alike their sire – so his legacy will be carried on. And with his son  - our Byron – and daughter Lucy it succeeded to bring this rare line to vitality and there are already some offspring of Byron who resemble thier grandfather again.

Tragically Byron died by car accident 2 weeks after the mating, so this litter and the 3/1 puppies of Aida Florex in Czech Republic are his only offspring...

Byron was an extraordinary Irish and excelled in type, very long and narrow head, racy elegance and outstanding movement. 4 of Byron’s littermates are already very successful in the show ring and in the breed.

I will always remember Byron - he was one of the best Irish Terriers I ever met!


AND NOW HIS PRECIOUS LEGACY:  RUFUS proudly presents the L-litter!
