We have had a great time getting to know Jack! The girls are thrilled and my husband and I are both happy with the way he is fitting into our family...he seems to really like it here in Rindge with us. Thanks again for all your help. We would certainly let any friends who might want an Irish jack know about your farm and breeding business. I have already told some people to check out your great website!
Best wishes,
Carrie K
Thanks and Happy New Year!
I've been meaning to contact you with an update of our Maggie... She has certainly been a joy as we've learned what it's like to own an Irish Jack, but we wouldn't trade any of these experiences!
Maggie is such a sweet, clever, energetic little girl... Although she rules the roost over our dachshund, she has settled into our family so nicely. I've never seen a dog try so hard to fit in to our lifestyle... you can actually see her trying to figure out what we want her to do (or not do!). She has learned several tricks, has never met another dog she doesn't find fascinating, and adores everyone who arrives at our house (be it one of the kids' friends, or an appliance service person!)...
Thank you for breeding this wonderful example of an Irish Jack... she has a super friendly temperament, a gorgeous coat, an athletic build, and a winning way to our hearts!

Hi, and Happy New Year ! Our puppy is named Abby now. I forget what you called her. She is doing very well. She is intelligent, obedient, and very friendly. She begins puppy school next week. She loves bigger dogs. She is very social with all dogs, however. She loves to run, walk, jump.
Hi Kathleen,
I have attached a few more pictures of Juggy.
He is doing very well. We are extremely happy with him. He is cute, smart, kind and very playful. He loves to play with a soccer ball or anything bigger. If we ever get to it I will try to make a little movie. It's funny to watch him.He is great with the boys. The other day Mason, our oldest got into trouble and was crying which made Juggy very upset. He looked like he was then one in trouble with his ears layed back and came over where Mason was sitting to give him kisses. He didn't leave his side until he stop crying. He still loves to eat and have been lucky enough to be able to steal a few things from the table. He is a very good at jumping, especially when he tries to reach the food people has in their hands. :)
He is loved by everyone whom meets him.
Hope you enjoy the pictures.

We got our Irish Jack after talking to Kathleen and seeing all her awesome dogs We fell in love with Bagel and was lucky it was her liter! There is not a day that goes by that our pup Guinness does not make us laugh and smile! We have a horse farm and from the second we let her out of the car she has become a very important part of our family! We just love her to death. She was a hit at the Northeast Poultry Congress. Our boarders love her too! She enjoys sleeping on the back of the couch when she is not cuddling with us!

Kathleen,
We purchased our male JRT and now that he has matured want to express again what a great dog you have provided to us. He is a big guy (about 17 lbs already) and 100% bulging muscles; coat is soft and smooth, but consistent with your advertisement his temperament is wonderful. Friendly, happy, and all of that... If you ever need a purchaser reference, feel free to give our name.
Hi Kathleen! My family and I just wanted to thank you so much for our bundle of joy! Macey is doing fantastic and brought so much happiness to our family. My father, brother and fiance came and picked her up in December. We would recommend you to anyone who would want a great Jack Russell!.. We have had so many people ask us where we got Macey and we gave them your name and website. She is very healthy and so much fun! We will keep you updated with everything..Thank you again!=)

I am finally getting around to telling you how much we love our little guy \"Booga\"! As you know, we had 2 Jacks before and I was a bit leery about going that route again. Don't get me wrong, I loved both of them like my kids, but they were two Jacks that were out of control. The barking, hyperness and stubbornness were enough for me to say no. They were each from separate breeders so as far as I knew that's just how Jacks are supposed to be. They were 2 yrs apart and neither of them liked anyone outside of my home. Going anywhere with them was out of the question.
That brings me to Booga. You can see why I really did not want another Jack but my husband loves those little guys. We found you by chance thru a search engine and as you know we came and picked out Booga. I can't stress enough how different he is from my other 2. He is so laid back, loves everyone and anyone. Training???? He is so smart. From day one he loved his kennel, loved to go for walks on his leash, (the other 2 did the drop and roll on their leash) and was house trained in no time. He is 6 months old now, and each day is awesome with him. He goes EVERYWHERE with me because he is so well behaved. He is MY dog, not my husbands!! I think my husband hit the nail on the head when he compares the other 2 with Booga, he says it is all in the breeders hands, I have to agree and let me just say thank you for doing such a good job!
Booga has a best buddy here at my home, it is our cat Moxie, they wrestle daily and chase each other around, when they finally settle down you can usually find them cuddling somewhere in the house. Booga also loves my brothers dog Macy, who is a Bull Mastiff. I am sending you a pic of Booga and Macy. When Booga lies down, whether it is the hardwood floor, his bed or the rug, he \"fluffs\" it up with his paws, this is usually around a 3 minute project for him. I caught him fluffing up Macy one day, and never laughed so hard. Good thing she is a good natured dog.
I want you to know when people question me about Booga I always tell them to check out your web site and tell them how awesome he is. I feel as though I had a 3rd child and I am one of those moms who is always bragging. I find myself going to your web site a lot and checking out the new pics you put up.
Well I think I have let you know we are completely satisfied with Booga. Take care and again, THANK YOU for doing such a good job!

Dear Kathleen,
We just wanted to give you an update on our girl Dolly. She is growing up into a quite a lady! Her white coat is lovely I think it is so unusual and her spots have come in dark, and it gives her a Dalmatian look. My sister in law thinks she looks like spuds Mackenzie. At any rate, she is fun. I have a handicapped little girl in my life. She is here with me almost every day. She adores Dolly. And although Dolly has good energy, she seems totally in tune with Georgia and her disabilities. We must be very careful with Georgia as she has a severe brain injury, and Dolly seems to know that. It is also a great opportunity for Georgia to learn to be assertive when Dolly is licking... Georgia must push her away on her own. It has been SO fun to watch. Of course they spend most of the day on the floor together, Dolly clamped to Georgia's diaper and G dragging her around on the floor....I will take some photos of them together for you to see. Thanks again for our Dolly girl and I will be in touch.

Hi Kathleen!
Riley is so great! She is growing into her ears, they still look like she's going to fly away but she's beautiful. I would love for you to come see her anytime you want. Mark just said the other night I should bring Riley over to see you. She's still tiny but we can tell she's gotten bigger. She loves our cats Molly and Thomas. She loves to sit on them and stuff her face into their fur. They are very fun to watch.
Riley sure does attract a lot of attention while she's out and about. People love her. Anytime you want to see Riley Girl just let me know. See you soon and think Spring!

So far we have purchased 3 dogs from Kathleen at Patchwood Farm. They are the best dogs we have ever owned! They are soooo smart, playful, healthy and have excellent dispositions. They like everyone and socialize really well. If anyone is even considering buying a Jack Russell, I highly recommend Patchwood Farms. We had 2 of them flown in, and one we picked up at Kathleen's farm, her animals are healthy, clean, and you can tell they are very much loved.

My husband and I have purchased two Jack Russells from Kathleen / Imported Jacks. They are super friendly and smart. They are not at all yappy or jumpy. Our guys love to swim, play ball, lay on the couch with us and cuddle. I have seen friends with Jack Russells that are out of control and is not a pretty picture! The dogs we bought from Kathleen are friendly family dogs and were easy to train.Thank you Kathleen for our little bundles of Joy!!!

We love Rudi and Bailey. They are delightful, fun-loving, well-behaved family dogs. They are easily trained and eager to please. Having two is more than twice the fun! Not only do they entertain each other, they entertain us. Well-bred and beautiful, we are totally in love with our Irish Jack Russells from Patch Wood Farms. They are the most amazing dogs!
