GAILS RAT TERRIERS FROM THE PAST
ALBUM UPDATED 1/28/09

Image hosted by Photobucket.comImage hosted by Photobucket.comImage hosted by Photobucket.com

FOR 3 GENERATIONS(back to 1920's)MY FAMILY HAS BEEN LOVING AND RAISING RAT TERRIERS. THEY ARE REMARKABLY SMART, LOYAL, FUN AND VERSATILE DOGS WHO WILL WAG THEIR WAY INTO YOUR HEART AND BE YOUR BEST FRIEND FOR LIFE.

WE SHOW AND CHAMPION AND GRAND CHAMPION OUR DOGS TO VALIDATE THEIR QUALITY BUT MOST OF OUR PUPS GO TO FAMILIES WHO JUST WANT A WONDERFUL PET, WHICH IS FINE WITH US.

IF YOU ARE GOING TO BUY A PUREBRED REGISTERED DOG, WHY NOT BUY QUALITY?

If you have any questions about our current Rat Terriers or just want to talk dogs... email me at GRINAVERE@AOL.COM

TUTTIE the WHITE MALE RAT TERRIER
was talked about all my life... and I felt I knew this dog like one of my cousins. He was a loyal family companion and smart enought to defy any attempts to teach him tricks. All the animals were taught tricks but Tuttie's legs turned to jello whenever someone tried.  They loved his cute defiance.

MY GRANDMA ROSIE, MYMOM and TUTTIE
GRANDMA was very special in my life. Not many photos of her because she hated having her picture taken. I cherish the few that I have.

MY BROTHER ROSS and TRUDY
TRUDY loved us kids and took her job as babysitter very seriously. I don't remember her except through photographs as she was getting old by the time I came along.

GRANDMA ROSIE and my brother ROSS
I recently found this photo of my Grandmother and Ross and Trudy. It was stuck to the back of another photo so I had never seen this before. What a treasure! Grandma hated having her photo taken so these are very few and dear to my heart. Gail

THE LAST PHOTO OF MOM
I took this photo of MOM ... and 7 days later she passed away suddenly. I was so surprised when I found the photo on my camera. How fitting, the last photos is of her holding a Rat Terrier puppy.
