Why Spring Hill?
When coming up with a Kennel name I initially thought Fire Side would be perfect. Our families love for camping, hiking, and sitting by the fire with our dogs by our sides is what prompted that name. Then my husband deemed himself the the person to name our kennel (cant blame him he does have to live with my life choices lol) We live in Springtown PA a very small area on a small hill surrounded by woods and fields. It is his childhood home and our forever home now. Justin loves that we live up on the hill and we can see the entire town below us so he decided we should be called Spring Hill Rat Terriers. I must say he is good at names, Spring Hill has a nice ring to it!
My name is Jackie Maye Olsen and I obtained my first Rat terrier in 2007 knowing little to nothing about the breed but I fell in love with their tenacious spirit and lovable biddable attitude. In 2012 I met a knowledgeable breeder and obtained my first show dog. Since then I have striven to learn as much as possible about the breed. Thanks to Stacy McWilliams of River Ridge Rat Terriers I have been able to experience first hand the whelping process and the amount of care and planning that goes into having a litter. I have tried to learn as much as possible from her many years of experience as well as learning from other mentors in the show ring. I am really excited to use my knowledge and experience to raise some wonderful puppies in the future. With the same goals in mind: better the breed and breed fully health tested dogs. |
