The Kerry Mountain Cattle (foundation stock)
bull
The Dexter descends from the ancient Celtic mountain cattle of Ireland and was, until the mid-1800s, regarded as a short type within the Kerry breed. 'Mr Dexter', agent to Lord Hawarden at the Dundrum House estate in Co. Tipperary, is credited (c.1750) with fixing the type 'by selection of the best of the mountain cattle of the district.'
