~~Located in the rural heart of Georgia~~
Championship Bloodlines
We are hobby breeders of purebred Rat Terriers located
in Georgia in a rural community near Adrian, Georgia.
**Standard-Type A Rat Terriers**
We currently have nine of the most beautiful and loved Rat Terriers in the world. Westin, Pattycake, Lucy, Tyra, Maddie, Hazee, Shasta, Canyon and Tressy say hello and thanks for visiting our page. All nine of them are beloved members of our family!!

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. We focus on QUALITY LITTERS, striving to correct faults and balance strengths and weaknesses with every individual breeding. No planned litter is taken lightly.



All of our Rat Terriers are OFA certified for healthy/normal cardiac and patellas. We are currently in the process of having all of them microchipped with Bayer microchips and registered with PetLink, OFA certified for healthy hips, elbows, and LCP and DNA profiled. We should have that completed in 2009 with all of them completely CHIC certified.
They are all registered with AKC, UKC and NRTR.

We have a small breeding program and all of our breeding 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.

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 and a few vegetables.

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.

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.

We hope you enjoy looking at our Rat Terriers. We truly believe that they are THE all-around best breed. They are GREAT with people of all ages, including 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. If you are just interested in having a perfect companion for your family pet, they are thrilled to be that, too!

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.
