About Us

We have been married for 16 years and more to COME with God’s blessing. God has given us three handsome sons. They are 14, 12 and 10 years old. We are home schooling them. I am a full-time mother, but I occasionally do some website design and photo touch-up work on the computer. My husband works at home doing AutoCAD drafting, and sometimes helps me with home schooling.
Our Rat Terriers are raised in our home and are housebroken.

We have about 3 acres, and we take the dogs with us on walks around our neighborhood or to roam around in the horse pasture. Sometimes we take them to PetsMart, Petco and other places that allow pets in stores.

Our rat terriers are spoiled to sleeping with our children ;)

If you decided to get a rat terrier in your home or breeding and I encourage you, before you decide to buy a rat terrier (or any breed of dog), to do your homework. Check their background, find out if their health has been checked by licensed vet, and PLEASE  make sure that the breeder tests the dam & sire thoroughly for OFA’s for hips, palleta, heart, LCP and elbows, etc. We don’t want you to end up with a dog with palleta or hip problems that would cause you heartache in the future. Rat Terriers are very easy to fall in love with!... We already have 4 rat terriers besides Molly, a rat terrier mix and we have had for 14 years.

Let me tell you my story about horses.. ;)

When I was a little girl, I was crazy about horses and was never afraid of them. I was about 9 years old when my parents got me a very stubborn paint pony. He would always go under the hot wire and buck me off and I kept climbing back on him. As I grew, I got too big for the pony. In my teenage years, I always wanted a stallion horse and everyone warned me that it is a bad idea. My parents ended up looking for a mare for me. We found one that was pregnant and I got excited. She was used to being saddled up and having children all over her and under her belly and etc. When I heard this, I was even more thrilled. I rode her in the pasture and my heart just “clicked” with her,so my parents bought her. I kept this special horse for 19 years. My heart always worried if something were to happen to her that it would break my heart and I always wanted her to be in a BIG pasture so she can ROAM around before she passed away. She is about 24 years old now. After we sold her and our other horse, I began to miss horses so badly that we decided to look for miniature horses. My husband took me to a mini horse ranch that his friend had told him about, and when we got there, we met the most wonderful and sweet lady. When she showed us "Blue", I fell in love with him. I had noticed him when we first pulled in the driveway. Then we met both fillies and all of her miniature horses and donkeys and we fell in love with mini horses. Blue is my little dream stallion. I always wanted my own stallion one of these days… My dream finally came true!!!.. Many thanks to my husband and this sweet lady for allowing me to have these miniature horses!.. We take them for walks in our neighborhood and allow people to pet them and hug or feed them.. ;)

I just wanted you to know us a little more and see how we raise and spoil our sweet babies... ;)
