Welcome to DanBar Cairn Terriers

DanBar Cairn Terriers

~ For Farm or Family ~

Over the past decade DanBar has developed a family of rustic, health tested, good natured cairn terriers. Fantastic with children, death on rodents and weasels, my cairns are a great choice as active companions for hiking, fishing, dog sports, farm life or companion for kids. Best of all, I breed for the true hard coat - so rare today; my dogs do not require plucking, stripping or trimming to look like a cairn! 
We will be having pups in spring 2026.To avoid disappointment get on the reserve list now.

First Litter Will Be Ready in Early February!
I will have limited litters in 2026. Get on the wait list now to avoid disappointment. First cairn pups will be available the first part of February. Mom will be DanBar Wee Merida Mouse Murderer (pictured above left). 
I am very proud of my dogs, my breeding program, my health testing and my guarantees. Please come visit us and meet the dogs any time you are in the area. I never restrict visitors from seeing my establishment or my dogs. Bring the kids! _______________________________
My heart-felt thank you to the folks who made the decision to support ethical breeders this year - because of YOUshelters will receive less unwanted dogs and dogs in general will benefit. Here's why:
The ethical breeders you support:* Microchip pups keeping themselves as a contact (safety net for dog)* Always take back any of their dogs no excuses (keeping them out of shelters)* Screen prospective owners/require fenced yard (keeping them out of rescues)* DNA/OFA Health test all breeding dogs (improving life of pup)* Contribute to health research on their breed (improving life of entire breed)* Produce purebred dogs of predictable character and good temperament* Never breed for fad colors, size or mix-breeds (increasing unwanted "fad pups")* Have wait-lists for their puppies (never need to dump pups at shelters)
Please don't enable and support $$$ breeders by buying pups from Craigslist, "Puppy Spot" type sites and retail rescues. This hurts ALL dogs.

I am proud of my dogs, my "cage free" facility, my health testing record and welcome anyone* to come visit - bring the kids!Due to my remote location, rough road and weather considerations, the kennel is closed in the winter. I breed for spring/summer litters only. Visitors welcome from April 15th to November 1st.
