My Kennel name: MonTerre
For those who do not know me, I started in Wire Fox Terriers under the

My Earth, because my dogs are the foundation upon which I live my life. They
are what gets me up in the morning. In addition, the
"Terre" also incorporates the terriers which I love; I love their feistiness,
their humor, their sense of adventure and their delight in everyday
experiences.
Although not "true terriers", I do love the personalities of the Tibetans...and
I love the fact that,
unlike Wire Fox Terriers, you can actually keep several of them without them
killing each other
(I know, I know, Tibetans fight too; but trust me, fighting amongst Tibetans is
mere squabbling between siblings
when compared to fighting Wire Fox Terriers).

IVYGLENN,
AKC REGISTERED PRE-FIX FOR ALL_BREED
Ivyglenn has special meaning to me because it is the result of a long search for something incredibly beautiful that could be AKC registered and at the same time tie into the Castle theme part of the city I live in. My second choice was going to be Knightstale or Knight Country because we actually live in a place called Paradise, Indiana (no joke) and we have a big high school called Castle, and they are the “Castle Knights” However, I knew I wanted an AKC registered prefix and in the old days when you registered it for all-breeds, the requirement was that no other breeder of ANY breed could have previously used that prefix. Knightstale and Knight Country could not be a protected name so I went with the one that could be, Ivyglenn!! I’m so happy though because the other one’s were way too long!!
Pronounced just like it sounds…Ivy Glenn
