My name is Michelle Ward. I have been working,
showing, and breeding these great little dogs for about
14 years now.
During this time, my Little Eden terriers have become
well known for their working ability and accomplishments in
the show ring. I
am a member of, and my kennel name is registered with, the
Jack Russell Terrier Club of America (JRTCA). I am also a member of
the Jack Russell Terrier Club of Canada (JTRCC).
We take the responsibility of
breeding very seriously at Little Eden. Any terrier entering
our breeding program has been carefully selected for natural
working ability, correct conformation, and steady
temperament. |
| They must have proven these
attributes in the hunt field, in the show ring, and in our
home. In
addition, all of our terriers are BAER tested for normal
hearing and CERF tested annually to rule out eye
problems. |
| We like an elegant, athletic
terrier that is naturally flexible, keen enough to do his job,
yet easy going enough to live with. These qualities, which
make this terrier so adept at earthwork, also help make it
incredibly versatile and capable of many different activities.
Little Eden bred
terriers, owned by us and others, can be found throughout
North America excelling in Natural Earthwork, Conformation,
Agility, Flyball, and Obedience. |

Jack, my “better half,” has
often been described as “the perfect terrier husband.” Although not actively
involved in the working, showing, and breeding of the
terriers, Jack has always been very supportive of my “doggie
endeavors.” He
frequently takes his vacation days around my trial schedule,
happily staying home to mind the kids and the
|
|
dogs left behind. He is the chief fence
builder, kennel fixer, and many can attest to the great hot
meals he has ready when we come home after a long day out in
the hunt field. |

|
| Our boys, David and Kevin, are
also a great support to me with all the work associated with
caring for and living with multiple dogs. They help with the
evening chores, keep the puppies entertained and out of
mischief, and exercise the adults out in the
woods. |

Without the combined efforts of
my family, Little Eden terriers wouldn’t be what they are
today. We are all proud of their many accomplishments and each
of us in our own way contributes to their
success.
We’re located northeast of
Buffalo, NY, about 25 miles north of Interstate 90. We
welcome |
|
meeting all Jack Russell
enthusiasts and invite you to join us doing what we enjoy
most—field work!
We are lucky to have an abundance of legal quarry right
outside our back door.
When the mood strikes, I can strap on a collar, pick up
a shovel, and “go for a walk.” So if you’re ever in
our neck of the woods, give us a call and maybe you can drop
by and take a “walk” with us. Or perhaps we’ll meet
up at a JRTCA or JRTCC Sanctioned Trial held on the East coast
or southern Ontario, where you can find us competing most of
the season. |
