30 minutes from Vancouver, B.C., Canada, right in the heart of the lush Fraser Valley. We are very close to the famous Peace Arch U.S./Canada border crossing, an hour from Seattle, and just 20 minutes from the Bellingham airport in Washington State. Salishan Meadows is reknowned for breeding some of the finest Thoroughbred horses in Canada, and we strive to uphold the same excellence and standards of quality in our Jack Russell Terriers. We accept nothing less than outstanding conformation, working ability,
genetic health and disposition.
25 years of experience in the breeding of winning racehorses has taught us the
importance of soundness, both structurally AND genetically. We BAER (hearing) and annually CERF (eyes) all of our
breeding stock. These records will be provided upon request.
We put a great deal of thought into each litter,
our goal being to produce the best puppies that we can, knowing that many of them will be cherished members of a
family. Salishan terriers are registered with the Jack Russell Terrier Club of America. It is the largest registry of
JRT's in the world and their focus is preserving the working integrity of the Jack Russell as a breed. We support that
ideal and do our best to uphold their standards.
Salishan Terriers are born in our home, and as they grow,
they thrive in the freedom of running and playing all over the farm. They enjoy regular interaction with children,
other dog breeds, livestock and those who come and go on our property. We believe this uncompromised devotion to their
mental health and physical well being creates a Terrier suitable for the hunt field, the show ring and as a beloved companion.
We welcome visitors to our farm and encourage those considering a Jack Russell Terrier to research the breed thoroughly. While being owned by a Jack Russell will probably be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life, they are not a dog suitable for every and all situations.
