Jack Russell breeders VD or nearby

Hi,

I am looking for Jack Russell breeders (or for sale) since I am interested in getting one before the summer ends.

I live in Lausanne, so anything under a 200Km radius would be okay.

Thanks for your help!

There is an eccentric English lady that breeds Jack Russel dogs, near Grilly or Vesancy, France. I went through Divonne-les-Bains and then north west.

Maybe ask the local vetinary doctor in Divonne. Or the vet in Nyon, as she used to vaccinate them there, to get the Swiss certificates.

Please take a moment to read this sticky thread:

How to spot a reputable breeder

In Summerrain's first post she has given the link to the SKG, the Swiss Kennel Club. Further, Jack Russels are governed under the Terrier Club and the Russell Terrier CLub:
http://www.terrierclub.ch/
http://www.russellterrierclub.ch/zuechter.html

Be aware that most good breeders will have waiting lists.

And just because rescue is my thing I'll take the opportunity to point out that there are several jack russels currently in need of homes: (Croquette, Stella, Rambo and Mila (Mila may be a JR mix). Sadly, JRs come into rescue frequently.

---

And because I'm a stickler for Da Roolz... if this is the first time you have owned a dog in Switzerland*, you will need to take the SKN theory course BEFORE you get your dog - so best do that now. Regardless of experience will have to take the SKN Practical with your new canine friend within the first year of ownership.

*(An exception: if an experienced dog owner outside Switzerland you'd need to present evidence to apply for dispensation from the theory course from the cantonal Veterinarämt. But honestly if you are new to dog ownership in CH I'd recommend taking the theory course, as things are rather different here.)

Wishing you and your new canine friend all the best.

Hi Hans, Would you consider a JR cross? There is one in the SPA in Ardon, Valais, which is quite close to the Vaud border. He is called Arko and was born in April 2006. Here (I hope!) is the link and a pic of the fine gentleman in question, bottom line. Good luck with your search!
