Our family of Hunt Terriers

As of 2017 we have decided to help with the limited gene pool here in the USA.

There are many

top

quality solid

shorties already here in America, but

there is a need

to out cross in order

to increase the

preferred breed standard,

without

having to consistently

cross back

predominately

white predecessors.

However, there will be

instances, where we

feel that shorties with specific minimal

white

bloodlines have

much to contribute to the Hunt Terrier overall, with increas

potential

produce little

to no white

plus

the

benefit of improved bone, substance

and temperament that

love in our

shorties.

We are looking forward

2018 with very specific plans to put together combinations that will not only build top

quality

lines

but also

produce some

unique solid color minimal shed wire broken coats with increased bone/substance.

Focusing

on laid

back family friendly

personalities and preferred conformation.

In the mid to late 1800's, the white

gene was bred

into the

solid colored terriers

from various breeds, due to the need to

distinguish their color from the Fox.

olid colored

shorties

fell by the wayside

as the predominately white jacks

became more popular and easier to distinguish

in the fox

hole.

Hunt Terriers are one

the

main predecessors of what we

know as Short Leg Jacks here in USA.

However to register a

Hunt Terrier as breeding

eligible, requires only puppies

produced of solid Tan, Red, Black,

Black/Tan with no or limited

white markings on

chest

toe's

and

feet. Puppies produced

with more white than breed standard

allows, placed as non

breeding companions

with limited reg.

Just like the predominately white shorties, the Hunts Terriers

are faithful companions

of their lifestyle.

They can enjoy the

same life style's as the American bred shorties when raised solely as companions.

But can

easily be

encouraged to express

their natural instincts as hunting dogs at home, around the farm

and in the field due

to the

fact that

they

are not bred solely as

companions in other countries. They have

become very popular in the USA for

their

tracking

abilities.

The "Solid Shorties"

are making a

comeback.

They are

the same great companions as the well know

predominately white

shorties and

are known

here in the states as

"AMERICAN HUNT TERRIERS"

May you every day be a Shortiejacks Hunt Terrier Day
