Our interests range from showing, to hunting, to breeding but we all share a love of this most loyal companion and best friend!

We are dedicated to showcasing our amazing Jack Russell Terriers competing in events such as conformation, racing, lure-coursing, go-to-ground, super earth, barn hunt, brush hunt, high jump, agility, trailing and location and ball retrieval showcasing a terrier's intelligence and physical abilities.

Showing conformation rewards breeders whose terriers meet our highest breed standard-these are standards which emphasize the health and true working abilities of the breed.

Our guiding principle is to promote the breed's historical conformation while keeping the working ability in the forefront. In other words, our goal is that the Jack Russell Terrier should remain a bright, alert, well rounded dog, with the form, endurance and drive to go to ground after their quarry.

Our events attract people from all walks of life and varied backgrounds encompassing all age groups.
Our Club is made up of a large group of volunteers who share a love of our dogs and sport alike. Collectively, we have a wealth of experience as trial organizers, participants, judges and volunteers at many of the trials, fun days and training events held throughout Ontario.
Our 2012 season will see some changes in the way we host JRTCC Fun Days. Our members survey highlighted the need to spend more time with new and potential future members who are unsure of the events we host. We will now offer mini training seminars for Child/Junior Handlers and those new to the club who are unsure of the tips and tricks to turning on these wonderful little white dogs. Please come on out and have fun with your terrier!
