What can one say about Lydia ... when she's good she's very, very good and when she's not she's all TERRIER! I can't begin to say what an impact this dynamic girl has made on our lives. She started her show ring career in February 2007 taking 2 Best in Show Puppy awards. She Championed in two show weekends...and went on in her second weekend out to take her first Best of Breed and Terrier Group.
Lydia became a GRCH at 9 months of age carrying along a few Best of Breed and Terrier Group 1 awards. She was also awarded National Champion at the 2007 ARTA National Speciality in Kalamazoo, MI.

4 #4 Grand Champion 'PR' Ratitatt All Abuzz About Jeter, BISS, BIMBS, RBIMBS, CGC - (Jeter)
Owner: Andrea Werner or Valerie Luchsinger
Jeter is my “Once In A Lifetime” dog. He has never let me down whether in the ring or as my faithful and loving best friend. His outgoing personality is matched only by his amazing movement and structure. Jeter has earned 21 Best in Multi Breed Shows, 1 Best In Specialty Show, 8 Reserve Best In Multi Breed Shows along with 104 BOB and 88 group placements. He was honored with the 2007 Top Ten Award of Merit finishing second to his father Buzzy. This was the first time a father and son finished first and second in the Top Ten Premier ring.
I consider it a privilege to be on the end of his lead, and I look forward to many years together as partners.
5 #5 GRCH Bur-Way American Doll @ B’ridge - (Andi)
Breeder: Barbie Trammell Owners: Kari Jepson and Barbie Trammell
Andi will only just have turned 2 years old by the Top Ten competition in June 2009. She came out the starting gate at 6 months with several breed and group 1 wins. She has consistantly won BOB and group and only gets better as she matures.
Her personality is sweet to the core. She is a love to people and other animals. One of her favorite things to do is hunt in the woods and she has helped catch a few packrats and 1 skunk! She will fight a varmint with terrier tenacity, however she is never quarrelsome with other dogs.
I can't thank her breeder, Barbie Trammell, enough for allowing this beauty to come and live with me.
