RAT TERRIER BREEDERS IN GEORGIA!

~~Located in the rural heart of Georgia~~
Championship Bloodlines
We are hobby breeders of purebred Rat Terriers located
in Georgia in the rural community of Scott.

We currently have six of the most beautiful and loved Rat Terriers in the world. Westin, Lucy, Tyra, Hazee, Shasta and Canyon say hello and thanks for visiting our page.

Our goal is to breed top quality Rat Terriers with
superb health, temperament and conformation. With goals to improve, we breed according to the UKC breed standard. Much research and thought is given to each potential breeding. All of our Rat Terriers are OFA Certified for cardiac and patellas and registered with AKC-FSS, UKC and NRTR and some of them are UKCI registered. We focus on QUALITY LITTERS, correcting and balancing strengths and weaknesses with every individual breeding. No planned litter is taken lightly. We have a small program with low numbers and all of our dogs are beloved pets. When introducing a new puppy to our home and breeding program, we housebreak them, leash train them, and socialize them with as many people as possible. They are considered far above "breeding stock". Our girls are not bred every cycle. After whelping a litter, they are given adequate rest, re-vet checked, and are completely withheld from breeding unless 100% ready and healthy. We never jeopardize the health of an individual dog just to produce puppies.





When breeding to produce a 50% or more Decker bloodline litter, we will strive to preserve the health, temperament, colors, correct ear set, hunting drive, muscle definition, and conformation that Milton Decker made his goal when breeding, while at the same time, breeding within UKC Breed Standard guidelines for the Rat Terrier. We are dedicated to maintaining the standards set forth by Milton and will strive to preserve this wonderful line of Rat Terriers. We have gone to great lengths to obtain bloodlines with proven hunting ability, intense prey drive and impeccable temperaments. While we will only occasionally produce 50% or above Decker bloodline litters, all of our dogs have some percentage of Decker bloodline in their pedigrees. The percentages are posted in their individual albums. Click for more information on Decker Rat Terriers.

We go the "extra mile" to make sure our doggies are safe, healthy, comfortable and happy. They are our beloved pets FIRST and they are all spoiled rotten. It is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to us to know that puppies we produce will be placed in homes where they will be considered a true member of the family and loved and spoiled very much, so please do not be offended when you are screened thoroughly
when applying for one of our little ones.

All of our pets are kept strictly up-to-date on their vaccinations and heartworm and parasitic preventive. They are fed Diamond Naturals dry kibble and given fresh cool water daily. Along with their dry kibble, they are provided a vitamin supplement daily. We rotate the times for adding the following foods to their diet: raw chicken necks, raw beef bones, plain yogurt, cooked chicken, cooked beef, cooked venison and a few vegetables. With the exception of our (breeding) Rat Terriers, all pets here at Kenann Country have been either spayed or neutered.
They are all very loved and they know it!

We hope you enjoy looking at our Rat Terriers. We truly believe that they are THE all-around best breed. They are GREAT with children! Ours love to play with the cats! They have a strong prey drive for those who are interested in a hunting dog and they are SUPER SMART for those who may be interested in a working/agility dog.

Rat Terriers are very curious and highly trainable. They thrive best when showered with the love and adoration of their human companions. There is nothing that a Rat Terrier loves more than to know he's pleased his master. It doesn't matter to a Rat Terrier whether he's hunting or just enjoying being a lap dog, just as long as he can be with his human companion. They are big dogs at heart packed into a smaller package and are terriers through and through with bravery and tenacity. Our dogs are an important part of our day-to-day lives. We're still not sure who enjoys our time together more--us or them. We've owned several other breeds through the years, but this breed outshines them all for being a PERFECT FAMILY PET!

"Kenann Country" explained: We have two beautiful daughters, Kensy Leigh and Anna Reigh. "K-e-n" is the first 3 letters of Kensy, and "a-n-n" is the first 3 letters of Anna. So you have it, "Kenann". We are located in the deep south and live in the country, which we love very much. So we are forever Kenann Country. You are welcome to check us out from time to time, as we will be keeping these albums updated and adding new ones.
