Jean Soeter is from Holland but has loved Irish Terriers since he was a small boy. He saw a picture of one and begged his parents for a puppy. He has bred them now for some years having brought his lovely dog Mr Mac with him from Holland.

He has a very successful kennel with a training programme for the pups which helps new owners with what can be “the wild puppy days”

He is anxious to preserve their wonderful upbeat temperaments, hardiness and supreme hunting skills.

His methods to some of us may seem unorthodox, but his dogs are charming, beautiful and some of the most confident dogs imaginable.

Best luck to them all.
