Puppies

Scarlett's three kids, from this spring. We're accepting reservations for the fall litters and spring of 2011.

Our puppies are usually sold by advance reservations. We occasionally have extra puppies like we do now, which is a wonderful surprise. We are now accepting reservations for planned litters in the future. If you would like more information please call or email me, Donna.

As sometimes it may be a six month to a year waiting time for a puppy from a certain pair of prospective parents, we encourage you to take the first step. Please send us your answers to the 10 questions on our questionnaire on the reservations page.

That is the first step, for your personal telephone interview, for us to start talking. If you'd like to email your answers in we can also do that. After becoming approved, then folks are eligible to send in a reservation deposit. The next step is going on the priority list for a specific set of parents, or a specific time line that is convenient for you.

Step 1: view the available pups or adults on the planned litters page. Once we have a telephone chat we will send you photos of the available puppies.
Step 2: call or email your answers to our questionnaire. Once approved by phone or email then you may move to step 3.

Step 3: Place your reservation deposit to hold a puppy for you. All deposits go towards the price of the puppy, of course. We will then send you all the photos of all our available pups. You may do this on the Reserving a puppy page.

These pups are some of our puppies as they learned how to do stairs. They have all gone to their new homes. The back deck is part of their play area and where they learn how to do stairs.

Please go to the Reservations page to fill out our questionnaire to apply for a reservation spot and then call or email us to let us know you are interested and we can start at these talking points.

You can see pictures of Rocky, Beau, Little Ernie, and Katie on the Our JRT Clan page or the Planned litter page.

Please see our 'Planned litters' page for upcoming matches.

Please visit our 'Past litters' page to see the quality of our puppies.

One of the differences in pedigrees is that when you have long, proven histories of many generations of the same line of dogs, you are able to see a consistency in quality in the puppies these dogs produce. It is over a long period of time that breeders have protected these lines and are dedicated to keeping them pure and undiluted to ensure the quality for generations to come.

When you establish new bloodlines you have done years of extensive homework and research in digging into the family histories of the dog's grandparents, great and great-great grandparents and research the family environments these dogs were also raised in. Genetics plays the largest part in about 40%, nutrition plays 30% and environment plays 30% of what makes up a good dog and how that dog develops. How that dog is raised as a puppy will determine how he acts as an adult dog and what he teaches his offspring for accepted behavior.

Watch the video below showing how the Potty Park is attractive to pups and dogs.

It is surprising how fast they gravitate to the potty park.

We have a link on our Favorite Links page for you to receive a discount on shipping if you order through our website. I'll be posting a short video of how our Norfolk Terrier pups took to it easily and love to climb up and do their potty business. Its great on those cold or rainy days. We start all our new litters on the grass in their large crate with moms. They model after the mom uses it in the large crate and then its easy from there.
