DBF Russell Terriers is a veterinarian-owned program located in northern Virginia for the breeding and development of small terriers known as Russell Terriers, an American Kennel Club (AKC) breed. Breeding since 2002, DBF Russell Terriers contributed to the foundation stock for the breed as it became formally recognized by the AKC in 2012. Although we have had much success in the show ring both in the USA and in Europe, we have never lost sight of the fact that our pups are going to be someone's pet first and foremost! So, while we breed to improve on conformation (appearance) and movement, health and temperament are primary. We want our terriers to be good family companions, full of life but not hyperactive, ready for a bit of feisty fun but never aggressive, loyal to their owners but friendly to strangers, while living a long life.

Please explore this site to learn more about us and our philosophy in breeding. Read about this wonderful breed of dog and the activities it excels in to determine whether it is the right breed for you. Be sure to see the FAQ page to see if we have answered all of your questions. View available puppies and available Juniors/Adults and complete an application if you are interested in discussing further. If you want to learn more about the show conformation of the Russell Terrier, watch the breed seminar video.

Hope that you enjoy exploring our site

Candice,

We lost our sweet Gentleman Jack last September and have decided we need another jack in our life. He was 14 years old and one of Pistol’s sons. We will be in Upperville this weekend and would like to come visit you . Is that possible?

We just moved to Buchanan VA. I used to show Parsons years ago. I did get 2 champions.

I’m interested in a pet now. I miss having the breed in my life. Please let me know if you have any pups you would need to have a wonderful life ! I would love to talk to you about it. 249-446-7887 or email.

Thanks , Lisa

I have a beautiful Jack named Sabrina whom I purchased from DBF. She is an awesome little dog which I had for 12 years.

Unfortunately, we lost her due to cancer and autoimmune disease .

She has led a terrible void in our lives. We are looking to purchase another pup this fall.

Love the companionship.

Well worth the price!

I have a Jack from DBF. He is the best and cutest little guy ever. He is now 5 (June 25th) and runs my house along with his brother JR. No health issues so far and a wonderful dog (most of the time..lol). I love them both to pieces…they have stolen my heart!

Hi Candice from Chip and us. We LOVE this little muffin and a big thanks for providing us with this joyful little guy. Just saw an ad on tv for a drug called Evenity which featured an adorable Russel terrier and we wondered if he was one of your babies? So cute!
