Nevada Sage Rat Terrier
    We believe our rat terriers to be the luckiest dogs alive. Living on a ranch in rural Nevada, our dogs are allowed to be dogs. They go out hunting nearly every single day and when they aren't hunting, they are by our sides being the best companions any of us could ask for. They go with us horseback, help us decrease the rodent population on our ranch, play in the endless acres of sage, find a shady spot to watch Jymme start colts, go with Lacey and her kids to feed her pigs and chickens and milk her cow, and they go irrigating with Leah and her family and help them eradicate squirrels and gophers on their farm.
    Nevada Sage Rat Terrier is comprised of three ranch girls, Lacey Thompson, Jymme Martin, and Leah Mori. We each have a small number of dogs who have become irreplaceable parts of our families. They get a lot of attention and are loved like members of the family.  
    We take pride in our dogs and the few litters we do have. Our dogs are socialized and they are not locked up unless absolutely necessary. They go with us everywhere we go. We are outdoors the majority of the time and our dogs are by our sides. They love being in the house and relaxing next to the stove or oven or they just cuddle up. They are great in the car and love the kids. They will adapt to absolutely every kind of lifestyle. They each have their individual personalities. They are spunky and kind and the coolest dogs any of us have ever owned.

We are currently in the process of adding information to this site, so please visit again soon to see the rest of our dogs and upcoming litters.

Josie X Roscoe Available Puppies
1. Josie X Roscoe Available Puppies  (March 14, 2011)
Just one apricot girl left! She's ready to go! Contact me today to make your life merrier with a rat terrier.

They've arrived and boy are they beauties! This litter arrived in the early morning hours on March 14, 2011. Josie really outdid herself this time. She had 7 black tris (some will calico out) and 3 apricots. They are BEAUTIFUL!! These puppies should reach 25-30 pounds as adults and be 16-17 inches tall at the shoulder. They will be big, beautiful rat terriers.

I am yet to meet two cooler dogs than Josie and Roscoe.Both are excellent hunters and spectacular companions. I can't wait to see what they produce. I expect puppies to be between 25 and 30 lbs and 16-17 inches tall at the shoulder.  

Josie is my most treasured dog. She is my best friend, my hunting partner, and my kids' favorite toy. She is a black, white, and calico beauty and has a wonderful personality. She is loving and playful and has amazing hunting abilities. She has led in clearing the ranch of rats, squirrels, and rabbits. I have even seen her kill a snake. She goes with me everywhere, but also loves nothing more than to cuddle up next to the fireplace. She fetches, gives high fives, dances, and watches the gate when I feed my chickens.

John, Roscoe’s owner, has had him since he was a small puppy. John enjoys taking Roscoe hunting for many different types of animals, from geese to deer. Roscoe is very handsome. He is black, white, and tan and is full of personality. He comes from phenomenal hunting bloodlines, used to hunt pigs and other wild game. He is sweet and loyal. Roscoe has the best of both worlds. He and John live in the San Francisco area and enjoy vacationing in Adel, Oregon where he gets to do most of his hunting.

These puppies will be great hunters, travelers, family dogs, and all-around wonderful pets. Please contact me soon to reserve your puppy.

Give me a call at 775-859-0399 or email me at nevadasageratterrier@yahoo.com to reserve your puppy.

Baxter/Remi Litter- March 2011
2. Baxter/Remi Litter- March 2011  (March 13, 2011)
All puppies in this litter have been reserved. We plan to make this cross again in the future. This is an amazing litter. All of the puppies are at their forever homes and we are proud to say that they are more than happy with their new additions.

We've GOT COLOR and lots of it! The puppies arrived the morning of March 13, 2011. We've got a pearl, chocolate tris, a black tri, and a blue. YAY!!

We are extremely excited for Skippin CJ Remi's first litter. She was bred to Rosethorn Baxter Almighty in January of 2011. Both parents weigh 15 pounds and are 15 inches tall at the shoulder and they make quite a pair.
    
Baxter is an all-around wonderful dog. He has perfect confirmation and is a gorgeous chocolate, white, and tan piebald. He has produced some beautiful puppies and we expect this to be the best cross yet. Baxter is sweet and obedient. He is extremely athletic and does some amazing tricks. He aims to please and has become a fabulous hunter alongside Nevada Sage Outlaw Josie.

Remi is a beautiful steel blue, with white and tan markings. She has a piebald color pattern. Remi is cuddly and sweet. She loves to snuggle up next to the fire or wrestle with Twiggy. She is a wonderful inside companion, but still likes to go out and ride horses through the brush. Remi is very loyal and is the ideal companion.  If her puppies are anything like her, they will be wonderful family dogs!

Both Remi and Baxter are 15 in tall and weigh 15 lbs so it should be safe to say the puppies will be 13-16 lbs and 14-15 inches at the shoulder as adults.

This litter will knock your socks off.
Females are Both Reserved
First Male pick Reserved
Two males available with possible interest

For questions and reservations, please call Jymme at (859) 221-6569 or email her at jymmemartin@yahoo.com.

Past Litters
3. Past Litters  (February 14, 2011)
We are proud to share some dog and puppy pictures and quotes from our past litters. We pride ourselves on breeding dogs that will make wonderful family dogs. The owners of our puppies love their dogs and enjoy how loyal and smart their dogs are.

Quotes from Owners:

"Everyone loves this puppy. We bring her in a kennel box and people stop and gawk. I never realized it because I never gawked at a puppy or even a dog."

"He took to us very quickly. I got him a stuffed duck and he was shaking in like crazy. Not going to have to worry about rats in the back yard. We love him to death."

"If anyone ever wants a reference, they are welcome to contact us via our email. Thanks again for doing such a great job. We really love her!"

Josie is my girl. She is the whole package. She is a black/white/calico Decker beauty with Irish markings. She is UKC and UKCI registered and all I could ever ask for in a companion. She never leaves my side. She is a fabulous hunter and the leader of our pack. I have never seen a dog with her hunt drive since her mother, Peachie. She is full of personality and has become just like me. She loves to wrestle and get rough or relax next to the fire or under a shade tree. She was my first rat terrier and she has made a believer out of me. I'm hooked on rat terriers!

Born May 15, 2008
SIRE: Seegmillers George
DAM: U Cross Peaches
OWNER: Jymme Martin
Height: 16.5 inches
Weight: 22.5 pounds


Nevada Sage's Twigalicious "Twiggy" is the queen around this joint.  She is an apricot and white female. Twiggy has a lot of personality and likes to hunt and frolic through the mud; but at the same time she loves to cuddle and lay by the fire in the house.  Twiggy is a very affectionate companion and loves to play with the kids.  She enjoys going along when we saddle up and drive cows, generally to hunt for squirrels and rabbits, while following my horse through the sage brush.  My mom hires Twiggy on a regular basis to help her declare war on her mice.  She is my first rat and thanks to her, I will never own any other kind of dog!

Twiggy and Baxter had beautiful puppies that have made many families wonderful pets and companions.  We are in the process of planning her next litter.

U Cross Peaches
10. U Cross Peaches  (September 27, 2010)
Weight: 23 lbs
Height: 15 in
Owner: Leah Mori
Color: Red Sable
DOB: May 15, 2000
Registered with the UKCI  

    This is the dog who started it all. Leah got Peaches, Peachie, as a puppy about 9 years ago. Peachie INSTANTLY became in irreplaceable part of the family and an asset on the ranch. She is a vicious hunter and is able to kill many rodents in seconds. She has even accompanied Matt, Leah's husband, when he goes lion hunting and she hunts right with his hounds. She goes with Leah when she rides and helps Matt on their farm outside of Winnemucca, Nevada and even jumps up on the back of Leah's saddle when Leah calls her. Leah's three kids love Peachie to death and she is great with them.
    Peaches is the proud mother of Ellie, Josie, and Twiggy and has produced a lot of color in her litters. Her puppies are all very unique but all have her strength as a hunter and wonderful personality. Her puppies are very adabtable and have gone to very diverse homelives and succeeded in them all.
    We are very proud of Peaches as she has given us all a love for the breed. Her beauty, strength, loyalty, and hunting ability are all we could ever ask for in a dog and companion.
