My first Jack Russell, Bubbles 1979 Co. Dublin, Ireland.

This was how it started, now at 53 I am still enjoying these little dogs.

My daughters with our first Jack Russell in the US, Murphy. We imported Murphy directly from Ireland, from friends in the Pony Club who had this line for many years.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, well if that is so, this picture describes my relationship with my Jacks, they are and always will be intertwined with my life. Since I was a small child animals, particularly my dogs were just part of who I am. It was a childhood dream to raise dogs, I feel very fortunate to be able to live that out.

My daughter took this photo, I was exhausted after another busy early morning taking care of the dogs and the farm animals. 

These little dogs have charmed me for over 40 years and I hope they do for 40 more.

Bubbles and I,  1981 Co. Dublin, Ireland.

I loved that little dog and she loved me.

Her ears popped up at 6 months and stayed that way, typical jack each one a unique and special character.

​It is lovely here in Maine, I had lived in Maine for almost 3 decades, I definitely consider it home now.

I have moved around a little but York is home.
