	Dog Kerry Blue Terrier
		The typical Kerry Blue Terrier should be upstanding well knit and in good balance, showing a well-developed and muscular body with definite terrier style and character throughout.
		The correct mature color is any shade of blue gray or gray blue from the deep slate to light blue gray, of a fairly uniform color throughout except that distinctly darker to fl parts may appear on the muzzle, head, ears, tail and feet.
		Kerry color, in its process of "clearing" from an apparent fl at birth to the mature gray blue or blue gray, passes through one or more transitions--involving a very dark blue (darker than deep slate), shades or tinges of brown, and mixtures of these, together with a progressive infiltration of the correct mature color.
