Northgate All Around Working Terriers

WELCOME TO NORTHGATE
Located on a small farm in the mountains of Northwest New Jersey, Northgate has been active in jack russell terriers for more than 30 years. Our terriers are worked regularly in the field and are true all-around terriers, winning multiple JRTCA (U.S.) and JRTCC (Canadian) National Championships in Conformation, Racing, Go to Ground, and Super Earth.

OUR PHILOSOPHY
Northgate terriers are members of our family. As veterinarians, we keep a close eye on the health and genetics of our terriers. All of our terriers are BAER normal, PLL tested, and CERF tested annually. At Northgate, we strive to produce well-socialized terriers with outstanding dispositions. We produce only a few carefully planned litters each year and our puppies are hand raised with our children, Erin and Gregory.

We are committed to preserving the working ability of the Jack Russell Terrier. It is that innate instinct that makes the Jack Russell what it is: a dog with the personality, temperament, energy, intelligence, and loyalty to be a determined hunter, fierce competitor, and loyal companion.

We hope you enjoy visiting our website. If you have any questions, please contact us.

--Douglas Tack, DVM and Susan Tack, DVM

All terriers are CERF Clear 11/2023. All Northgate terriers are tested for PLL, SCA, DM, and LOA.
