Rockledge Kennels

Rockledge Kennels raises Irish terriers on a working ranch in Ava, Missouri, deep in the Missouri Ozarks — about an hour and a half southeast of Springfield. The kennel is operated by Evelyn Weber, whose family history with the breed stretches back to the 1940s, long before the Missouri ranch came to be.

The kennel takes its name from a beloved stallion, Money Creek's Rockledge, reflecting the Webers' roots in the horse world. That background informs how they talk about their dogs: the emphasis is on clear-headed, sound temperament — what they describe in ranch terms as having their "heads screwed on straight." Over the decades, the program has worked toward producing Irish terriers with stable dispositions and genuine intelligence.

The dogs at Rockledge are not kept in cement kennels or cages, but live on the ranch's secluded acreage. The operation is licensed by both the state of Missouri and the USDA. For anyone searching for Irish terrier puppies in Missouri with a long-established pedigree behind them, Rockledge Kennels represents one of the more storied programs in the region.
