OUR DOGS DO STUFF - COME SEE!!! Meet Breeder
Darice Ragan lives near the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee and raises Rat Terriers. She places extreme importance on correct structure, breed type, good temperament and health.
Rat Terriers have been part of Darice's family since the 1940's. Darice's dogs have appeared in magazine articles such as Dog Fancy, The Canine Chronicle, the 2006 Rat Terrier breed mega-magazine and Showsight’s 2021 Rat Terrier Digital Magazine. Her dogs were also written about in The New York Times, The Knoxville News Sentinel and The Daily Times newspapers. One of Darice's Rat Terriers has appeared numerous times in Brown Troutt Calendars and made the calendar cover twice. One of her American Hairless Terriers was on the cover of Bloodlines magazine. Another RaganRatter is on the package of a PetSafe dog product. Darice has been active in the dog show world since the age of sixteen. She’s written a How-To book on docking tails.
Darice has been breeding Rat Terriers for 30 years. Today, even in 2024, many of her bred-by dogs have accomplished many successes. RaganRat boasts two UKC National Best of Breed winners (2015 and 2011); two Altered National Best of Breed winners (2015 and 2012); three Top Ten Best of Breed winners with Top Ten Finalist placements. In 2017, Darice handled her boy, Caesar, to capture the AKC National Owner Handler Finals Best of Breed win. Darice's dogs also excel in performance events and several are Total Dogs in UKC and AKC. RaganRat boasts MACH ranking dogs as #1, #2, #11, #12 and #19 spots for 2020. Six (6) RaganRatters are ranked in AKC FastCat 2020 statistics. A RaganRat is the #1 Rattie in Rally, another is #11. PACH ranks a RaganRat; and four (4) dogs listed in All Time Top Rat Terrier Barn Hunters. “Pierce” boasts ranking as #22 in Sr. Class Big Air of the Worldwide DockDog Rankings!
One of Darice's Dock Divers won the 2015 UKC Premier Total Dog Best in Show. Her dogs have Eukanuba, Royal Canin and Westminster wins. Her dogs have AKC and UKC titles in conformation, agility, rally, dock diving, barn hunt, lure coursing and FastCat racing. RaganRat is extremely proud to have eight (8) Ratties working as certified Service Dogs across the United States and one in Alaska! We LOVE our Pet homes people and enjoy their stories of Joy our dogs give them and love getting video and photo updates.

RaganRat TOP DOGs in Performance Sports RaganRat bred Rat Terriers who have soared to the TOP of their Game in
Performance Sports events.
I am so Incredibly PROUD of my Dogs and their owners. Owners dedicate their lives to the Dog and Dog Sports. Many owners train their dogs for hours, days and years; not to mention the travel and money spent to compete. And sometimes reaping the rewards are HIGH! I am so honored each person selected a dog from me and took their RaganRat to the TOP.
There are FIVE (5) RaganRatters in the AKC TopDog MACH Agility 2020 list! Wow!! Shelby Rae, owned by Melissa Liebhardt, is THE NUMBER ONE RAT TERRIER IN THE US for MACH Agility!!! Next, Zumba, owned by Jennifer Masterson, is the NUMBER TWO Rat Terrier in the US for Agility!! At #11 is Xtra, #12 is Caper and at #19 is “Q”, all RaganRat Terriers owned by Harriett Browne and myself. Huge accolades to Harriett for training and handling all the dogs to performance success!
In RALLY, Rocky, owned by Helen Aiken and myself, is THE NUMBER ONE RAT TERRIER IN THE US for Rally 2020!!! Rocky is listed as #1 Rat Terrier in Rally for the second year in a row. He was invited to the Nationals for the 5th year in a row. Helen gets all the credit for taking Rocky to the Top!!! His proper name is: RACH Raganrat Rocky Top BN RM3 RAE4 FDC CA CGC TKE. And not to be out performed is RaganRat Rosalind Full of Grace, aka Rosie. She is also on the AKC TopDog Rally list ranking at number 11! Congratulations Helen!!! I am really, really proud of you.
CongRATulations to the owners of all the dogs! My goodness, what HIGH accomplishments each of these women have achieved!!

NuVet Plus™
* Combats the onslaught of free radicals in our companion pets. This unique formula consists of precise amounts of vitamins, minerals and high-potency antioxidants that when combined, create a synergistic and powerful boost to the immune system.
Product Details
* Our scientists, veterinarians and formulators began with the premise that most pet diets are lacking the proper amounts of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. There are important nutrients that animals once received when they were living in a more primitive environment that are not available in the modern diet. Commercial pet foods contain numerous by-products that can make them poisonous, toxic and incapable of reducing the devastating effects of unstable oxygen molecules, also known as 'free radicals.' Free radicals have been implicated in more than fifty health problems in humans and animals including various forms of cancer, heart disease, arthritis, cataracts and premature aging.
After extensive testing with many different combinations of ingredients, our scientists formulated NuVet Plus™. We believe, based on the most current medical, veterinarian and nutritional reports, NuVet Plus™ will combat the onslaught of free radicals in our companion pets. This unique formula consists of precise amounts of vitamins, minerals and high-potency antioxidants that when combined, create a synergistic and powerful boost to the immune system.
* Information provided by NuVet Labs.
NuJoint Plus™
* Is a natural anti-inflammatory hip and joint therapy, formulated with the finest pharmaceutical, human grade ingredients.Major considerations in formulating NuJoint Plus™ were the pharmaceutical grade quality of ingredients and their healing values, as well as the bio digestibility and utilization into the cellular framework. NuJoint Plus™ has been formulated by leading Veterinarians and Scientist to contain precise percentages of Glucosamine, Chondroitin, Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) and Vitamin C which will help to quickly and effectively reverse and heal the devastating effects of osteoarthritis.

DAYS GONE BY (May 5, 2017)| Photography is another hobby of mine. My friend Michelle Perkins Blackmore took me for a backroad ride to an old farm. I selected some of my favorite shots. I wonder about the families who lived, worked and built their lives there. It was an enjoyable day. |
