Judie Baker-Shirk is the force behind Argosy Terriers. Her love affair with Jack Russell Terriers started when Judie was 4 1/2 YO, in April 1948 when she was given a white female pup. The pup's parents were smuggled on a submarine at the end of WWII from England. The smuggler, a close friend of Judie's father, served as a submariner in the US Navy. He was bringing the pair back to help with rodent

control on his mink farm in NW Washington state. BITSY became a constant companion for Judie, an only child. She even was in Judie's wedding. At the incredible age of 21, Bitsy succumbed to injuries after an altercation with a German Shepherd. JRT #2 lived to 20 years old. Not long after that Judie and Janice Freimark formed J & J Terriers. They had a great run and produced some incredible terriers. Health, family, and personal concerns ended the formal arrangement for Judie and Janice, but ARGOSY Terriers was formed. Hanging on to some of the original bloodlines and introducing the occasional new terrier, Judie moved on. and continues to breed high quality Jack Russell Terriers under the Argosy name.

For some reason there are things that never just simply go as planned. Day 57, about 6 PM, Dory evidently forgot to read the instructions and skipped the first stage of labor. Lots of panting, digging, pushing. By 8 PM - dilated, nothing in the birth canal. I had given her calcium a couple of times which really didn't seem to help. Call to the EC which told me to come on in. 35 minute drive to Lacey; checked in and was told to wait in the car; someone came out and took our info. Half hour I checked Dory - no progress. I did this until 10 PM when I finally could feel a head. At about 10:30 PM someone came out and told me to go somewhere else, that they were too busy to see Dory. I have teched at ECs and I know it can get crazy sometimes, but to turn away a bitch in dystocia wasn't something we ever did. Beside being inhumane, it is a $$ maker. 35 minute drive back home. Apologized to Dory and proceeded to pull a 10 oz pup. Now Dory is a diminutive 11 inch dog. This pup was half grown. The next was 8 oz and another was 7.8 oz. These three pups were dead - just too long waiting to get out. The next two pups were more normal 6.7 oz and survived. Two rollie pollie females. Fortunately, Dory is being a good mom.

Well, it only seems like a few days ago we had six of these little buggers terriorising our house. We are down to our keeper ARGOSY Grace O'Malley (Gracie). She almost makes up for the absence of her five siblings. Well, here we go again. ARGOSY Dory is due one week from pictured. We will know how many on Tuesday. Stay tuned.......

Not quite sure how they got this accomplished, but I guess it works for them.

Five weeks old and ready to take on the world in true terrier form. Six beautiful pups (FMN Snow Drift x Argosy Lady Washington). Not much color in this litter - thank you daddy Drifter and great grandpa Milkman - BUT they are gorgeous!! Even world conquerors still need their mommy and nap time.

KITFOX Brillo (4th generation from FORRESTAR's original breeding) was born in Strathmore, AB, Canada at the Bar 7 M, owned by the unforgettable Bea Meyers. Both Bea and Brillo are gone, but their legacy lives on in FORRESTAR Rayne, ARGOSY Lady Washington and ARGOSY Grace O'Malley (the newest pup in the kennel).
