Dbf Russell Terriers

Dbf Russell Terriers breeds Russell terriers in Middletown, VA, in the Shenandoah Valley near Winchester. Candace Lundin, Dvm and Frank Zureick have bred Russell terriers for more than a decade, combining veterinary insight with hands-on experience and sharing membership in national terrier clubs. Health testing includes hips, eyes, and patella evaluations following breed club guidelines.

Puppies are raised underfoot in a family home, socialized with children and other dogs, and receive daily handling from their first weeks. Litters stay small to ensure individualized attention and early exposure to household sights and sounds. They focus on preserving the breed’s lively temperament and working ability through regular exercise and structured play.

Past families note the puppies’ friendly nature and adaptability to home life, often returning for recommendations on training and enrichment methods. The kennel sits on several acres of open land where adults and youngsters enjoy supervised outdoor time within secure fencing and varied terrain.
