Terror in the Pines (Arizona)

I only took two terrier's to Arizona as I was flying. Briar Run Tramp and Rancho Fiasco Kaddy were the lucky ones, or should I say I was the lucky one?! On Saturday, under Judge Teri Evans, Kaddy was reserve Working Terrier Bitch. The Trampster was Best Open Bitch, then went on to win Best Open Terrier. On Sunday, under Judge Thelma Loomes, Kaddy was again reserve Working Terrier Bitch. Tramp repeated as Best Open Bitch and then was placed as reserve Best Open Terrier. Keep in mind that Tramp was three weeks pregnant when I showed her. It must've been that "mommy glow"!

We then played "tourist" and I got to visit the Grand Canyon for the very first time. Incredible-I can now mark that off my bucket list. Even the terriers had a good time. Thank you Beth Pierson, for your wonderful hospitality and the sightseeing!

Canine Eye Registration Foundation

One of the most prevalent genetic problems with Jack Russell Terriers are eye problems. Any reputable breeder will have their terriers CERF'd (Canine Eye Registration Foundation) yearly and should be able to show you those results upon request. If they don't, you as a buyer should run as fast as you can the other way! I am very happy to report that all the Sweetgrass terriers used for breeding purposes passed their yearly CERF exams. Hallelujah!
