I'm Nick & Patricia M., the breeder behind Misty Bridge Terriers located in Petrolia, CA. Our breeding dogs have been health tested and our puppies are temperament tested and are started on their shots before we place them. Right now we are only breeding our champions. Some of our previous puppies are being shown and/or competing in other AKC events but some are just part of loving families.
Q. & A. with Nick & Patricia
Why did you start breeding?
After taking our male easily to his grand championship, we imported a female and took her to her bronze grand championship. We usually only breed to get a puppy we can show.
What makes your program special?
We don't breed to sell puppies. We breed to try to preserve the standard of the Russell Terriers and to be able to raise and place them where they will be good representatives of the breed.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
