Welcome to our web sight!

We are proud to have Casa de Rats dogs as our breeding stock, without Lou and her dedication 
to the breed my breeding program would not be the best it could be. Thank you  Lou!

We live in beautiful Northern California about 2 hours north of Sacramento were the air is clean 
and the sky is clear, and home of some of the most magnificent lakes in the US.

We breed class A Minis 11 to 18 lb. Colors are Black, White and Tan Tries, Chocolate Tries.

We breed for Health, Temperament, athletic agility, hunting abilities and conformation. Our Rat 
Terriers have retained their Intelligence, strong hunting drive, and calm laid back attitude.

Our Rats are part of our family 1st and for most and are treated as such.
Our puppies are given the best care even before they are born with giving our Mother 
Rat Terrier (Comet) the best prenatal care. She is fed Nutro Max puppy food, cooked meats, 
fresh veggies, yogurt, (Peach is her favorite.) and eggs. We feel that having healthy pup's starts 
with a healthy well loved and cared for Mother. 

Our puppies are born and raised in our home in their own large 400 square foot air-conditioned 
and heated playroom. They are crate trained, paper and outside potty trained, raised and handled 
with small children from the day they are born. They play with lots of different toys and go to their crate 
to sleep on their own. They also have a large back yard to run and learn how to play fetch games with 
the kids. They are fed Nuto Max dry and canned puppy food with some cooked meats and viggies added.

First shots are given, Tails are docked, dew claws removed, and are wormed. A health guarantee,
Veterinarian health check record and puppy starter kit are provided. 
They are all NRTA and UKCI kennel club registered.

Summary of the Rat Terrier (NRTA)
The most solid attribute of the Rat Terrier is an undying will to please their master and a need to be near him.
Their intelligence is far supreme to most breeds; holds extremely keen senses and a loyalty that transcends 
them as a family dog. The three qualities that are essential to the Rat Terrier breed are:
1. A capable utility/hunting dog.
2. A wonderful family companion.
3. A watch dog with keen alert senses picking up intruders very quickly.
In summary, the Rat Terrier is still widely used throughout the USA on farms for any kind of vermin and for
hunting and treeing by hunting individuals. They work well as a team and are extremely efficient at their jobs. 
As a house pet they are unsurpassed, being extremely intelligent, loyal, friendly and happy to be alive. They
have a long life span of 14-18 years, so they will be around to enjoy. Their coats are short and smooth leaving
you with little grooming if any at all. The expression in the eye of the Rat will tell story after story and the a
ttentiveness to their master is like no other. They are natural born entertainers and will be your child's best 
friend. Being extremely loyal they make favorable little guard dogs. No one will enter with out first being 
announced by your Rat Terrier, but they stay on their best behavior when company calls.
The Rat Terrier is now recognized by many registries across the USA.
