If you are Devoted to the Jack Russell Terrier

Join us

The Jack Russell Terrier Club of Canada invites all Jack Russell Terrier admirers and owners to join the club in its efforts to preserve the historic conformation and working qualities of this wonderful, versatile dog. To this end, we maintain a breed registry, hold trials and fun days and keep members in touch with our website and e-letters.

All welcome

We welcome all whose interests include any or all of showing, hunting, breeding and, perhaps most important, loving this most loyal companion and best friend.

JRTCC's Conflicting Organization Policy

The JRTCC expressly prohibits terriers owned by its members and/or registered with the JRTCC and/or JRTCC members, from participating with those terriers, or officiating/judging at any events that are sponsored, produced, sanctioned by or associated, affiliated or allied with, or related in any way to organizations that are considered conflicting organizations by the JRTCC, which consideration shall be defined at the sole discretion of the Executive of the JRTCC, should that be necessary.
Conflicting organizations presently include, but are not limited to the CKC, AKC, UKC, JRTAA, Parson JRTC of Great Britain, CJRTA and all Rare Breed or Miscellaneous Breed Organizations and any group seeking Kennel Club recognition.
Violation of this policy, knowingly or otherwise, will result in the member/terrier being sanctioned or penalized by the JRTCC, which sanctioning or penalty may include expulsion from the JRTCC with all fees forfeited, or in the case of kennel name registrations, withdrawal of the right to use that kennel name in registrations, and withdrawal of all privileges for the recording or registering of terriers.
Members should note that this policy applies only to the participation
or exhibition of Jack Russell Terriers in such events, and not the
participation or exhibition of other breeds or types of dogs owned by a member.

What does membership involve?

Being a JRTCC member means you share and want to further the goals of the club, as stated in the JRTCC Constitution. It means you do not support Kennel Club recognition of Jack Russell Terriers. It means your terrier may be registered or recorded in the JRTCC Breed Register and enter National and Regional Trials, to compete where the top titles and Awards recognizing the best terriers are to be won.

a healthy Working Terrier. Find out how to register or record your Jack Russell Terrier
