Down-N-Dirty Jack Russell Terriers Down-N-Dirty Jack Russell Terriers are proud members of the JRTCA. All our dogs are our pets and live in our home. They are a very special part of our family.

We support the JRTCA Breeders Code of Ethics and the official motto, "Preserve, Protect & Work the Jack Russell Terrier." We only breed an occasional litter to keep something for ourselves. Occassionaly we have some very special terriers available. Please note: This is our hobby. They are our pets. They are members of our family and are treated as such.

Myth: If it has papers, it must be good.

Reality: Papers only show a dog was registered—not how or why.

In the JRTCA, registration is based on the individual dog meeting real standards—not just being born.

That’s what preserves the real Jack Russell Terrier.

As we celebrate 50 years of the Jack Russell Terrier Club of America, here’s something you might not know…

Jack Russell Terriers are bred to think independently, problem solve, and use their nose with precision. These traits are not taught—they are preserved through careful breeding.

This is what 50 years of preserving a working terrier looks like.

Just another thing that makes our breed club different…

What makes JRTCA breeders different?

Health testing isn’t optional—it’s expected that we hold each other accountable with standards, not rules.

And it’s not about checking boxes…
It’s about making informed, responsible decisions.

That’s what preserves the real Jack Russell Terrier.
