Welcome to Claddagh Jacks!!!

Claddagh Jacks is the home to your new best friend!! We raise only short legged, Irish and English Jack Russell Terriers. We call ourselves Claddagh Jacks because of the love we have for the Claddagh and for our little Jacks. The Claddagh is the Irish symbol for love. Unlike other Irish Symbols, the Claddagh is not an ancient Celtic design, but a 16th century Irish symbol for love and friendship. The heart at the center is symbolic of love, the hands around the heart symbolize friendship, while the crown represents everlasting loyalty. THUS, "CLADDAGH" Jacks, home of the loving, friendly and loyal Jack Russell shorty!! This is the place you will find unconditional love from the greatest little Jacks around.

Claddagh Jacks has supported many projects over the years with proceeds from our great little puppies. Every year we collect all year long for Operation Christmas Child. Christmas 2008 we filled 2300 shoe boxes for underprivileged children. We continue to support that ministry and will be collecting all year for our 2009 shoe boxes. This spring Claddagh Family will be helping build a Habitat for Humanity house. We will be donating material and supplies for a new home for a family here in our county. We will also be working there with the family every week until it is completed. We look forward to watching God work in the lives of people who we are able to help. We appreciate your help with donations. So many of you helped with our Christmas project and it was a complete success. God Bless You and keep watching for updates!! Thank you, Belinda Allen

Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect, it means you have decided to look beyond the imperfections!

This is Oyster. His new family sent this in for us to enjoy. He was definitely a little guy I hated to let go, but he has a wonderful family that love him very much and he is very active as you can see.

Note: It has been brought to my attention that there are concerns about my cancer and me dying and maybe not being around for all the wonderful Claddagh friends. IT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!!! I have had two kinds of cancer and am as tough as nails. The Lord still has work for me to do, one of which is helping the entire world know how wonderful shortie Jacks are...

I am alive and very much kicking. I have bad days like everyone else, but am trusting God every single day for many, many years to come. Takes a lot more than a little cancer to take me out. A breeder has to be as tough as her breed, so there! Thanks for your concerns and calls, but I will be here if you need anything. If you just want to talk Jacks, or if you need help with training, or any issue. Even if you don't want to talk dogs at all and just need someone to talk to or pray with...I'M HERE!!! Again, thanks for your concerns, I appreciate it.

THIS IS A SON OF MY TANK - HIS NAME IS TANK ALSO. HE IS A MODEL FOR THE ITALIAN CLOTHING INDUSTRY. HE LIVES WITH PAOLO, THE OWNER OF A MODELING AGENCY IN MIAMI, FLORIDA. HE FINISHED THIS PHOTO SHOOT IN ITALY AND IS IN ALL THE ALCOTT CATALOGUES AND ON ALCOTT'S ADS. THEY ARE THE ITALIAN ABERCROMBIE. HE POSES ON DEMAND AND IS LEARNING TO SKI!!!! EVERYONE NEEDS A SHORTIE JACK!!!
