Welcome to Claddagh Jacks. Thank you for visiting. I wanted to let everyone know the Claddagh Farm news of the day so you can keep up with all of us. This is LJ, Belinda's friend who does the updates when she is unable to. We have lots of news from the farm. New puppies available to go now, check out the pics on the puppy page. Belinda is still homing a few of her breeding dogs if you are interested in that, drop us an e-mail and we will give you details. I will be doing updates this week only and my husband and I will be traveling for the next 8 weeks. I think Belinda will be home most of that time. Her last surgery was cancelled as the surgeons determined that he spine was inoperable. I will try to get details for that soon, but in the meantime, please just pray for her. ALSO, Belinda just became a grandmother again. JOSHUA LEVI ALLEN was born on the 27th of August and is home doing really well. He is quite a beautiful little man. Mom, baby and grandma will be home to day and I am staying here to make sure all three of them are settled and take a long nap. Belinda stayed at the hospital for since Thursday and I am making her DO NOTHING for the next 2 days. Puppies are great and several of the are going to their new homes this week. Let us know if you have questions or need pictures.

God's Blessings to all....LJ

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.

Operation Christmas Child. Christmas 2008 we filled 2300 shoe boxes for underprivileged children.

We continue to support this ministry and will be collecting all year for our 2009 shoeboxes.

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 shorty 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 Noah our Amazon parrot. We share everything at Claddagh Farm... Puppies are raised in a very social environment!!
