Aerie Ridge Teddy Roosevelt Terriers

Mary B.

Breeder of Teddy Roosevelt Terriers

Meet the breeder

I'm Mary B., the breeder behind Aerie Ridge Teddy Roosevelt Terriers located in Glencoe, KY. Our dogs are bred to conform to the Breed Standard, to retain their sweet-natured temperament, as well as workability and athleticism to perform.

Q. & A. with Mary

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We started simply by going to find a good ratting/companion dog (a short-legged- Rat Terrier like I'd had as a child). It was extremely difficult but we finally found a breeder, got two males, long story short we realized the straights the breed was in genetically and found our passion. We have changed our farm goals drastically and immersed ourselves in the preservation of this amazing breed.
  • What makes your program special?

    Our puppies are raised on our fifty-acre farm, in our home. We do genetic health testing as well as OFA Certified Cardiac & Patellas. Our adult dogs do the work they are bred for and work in a pack to hunt rabbit, squirrel, groundhogs, mice, and rats. We also do extensive Conformation Showing to prove their bodies are as sound as their minds. We pay special attention to temperament in order to retain the individual bonding, playful sweetness, and the 'off switch' Teddy's are known for. We strive to match our puppies temperament to the right home for them, so expect lots of questions! Our puppies come litter box/pad trained. With their first shot and appropriate deworming done. We send them home with a 'Starter Kit', all health papers, and our recommendations for their care. We do hold papers until proof of spay/neuter on our 'Pet' puppies. We also have a 'Return to Me' clause. We welcome good breeders but have higher expectations from you. We expect you to prove worthy of the daunting task of Breed Preservation.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
