I have raised Rat Terriers for as long as I can remember.  I have had all shapes, sizes, and colors.  I have always been partial to the larger breed of Rats.  My Rats have been used for hunting squirrels, hogs, skunks, possums, snakes, and of course rats and mice.  They are also great companion dogs, as they get very attached to the family that has them.  I finally found the kind of Rat Terriers that I wanted to raise, when I met Eli Brown.  His line of Decker Rat Terriers were awesome.  I purchased a female, Sheba, from him in 2006, and then a male, Ram, in 2007.  They are the beginning of my line of Decker's.  I have plans to purchase more breeding stock in the near future.  These dogs will make great pets to anyone who purchases one.  Thank you all for viewing this site.  David
