This has kept the breed, for the most part, out of the hands of the puppy mills and back yard breeders, and those that do have breeding rights strive to breed correct dogs (proven by showing) and healthy dogs that have extensive health clearances done before breeding (x-raying of hips, cardiac, knee and eye exams, etc.). The Border Terrier has historically remained a rather healthy breed this is because it’s breeders have been ferociously protective of it and have not sold or given intact dogs to just anyone who shows up at the door with the money. Please bear in mind we receive a LOT of inquiries, so it just made sense to save my vocal chords and typing fingers and put a lot of information on this website for you to read *before* you call or email - please take advantage of this opportunity and browse the informational page on the breed, the grooming, and our breeding philosophies.

After you have done that, you need to select the breeder you feel comfortable working with who is going to stand by the puppy they produced, and “be there” for you to answer questions and help you raise your first Border Terrier? The best breeder for you is not necessarily the closest one nor is the best dog the one you imported from farthest away. If you clicked on “Puppies” first, this is *not* the place to start in your quest for a Border Terrier first, you need to make sure and then doubly sure this is the right breed for you, your family and your home. Thank you for visiting Brentwood Border Terriers (online).
