DanBar's Wee Scottish Pagan
The Wee Mikey x Twizzle cross always produced really exceptional pups. Wee Pagan was my pick to stay here at DanBar to help me continue my family of dogs. She has a useful coat and calm personality. I'm excited about what her genetics can do for my goal of producing a family of dogs with predictable appearance, coat and temperament.
A "child of Covid", Pagan has been unable to get out to all the health testing I want for her. Luckily, being a homebred bitch, I know the status of her parents. For example, she is "cleared by parentage" for all four of the Cairn terrier genetic diseases including CMO. This means that if neither parent has ANY bad genes for these diseases, they cannot produce a pup WITH any of these diseases.
Below are the OFA results for her sire and dam, showing she comes from clear parents. Pagan is one of the few cairn terriers in America to have BOTH parents be CHIC certified by the AKC. CLICK HERE to learn about what CHIC means.

Pagan injured her right ear as a wee pup, and it developed a large hematoma. This caused the base to "crinkle" a bit, and since I don't show my dogs I didn't worry about it. It is all healed now, but does not stand straight up. So if you are wondering why she doesn't show an ear some time, that's why.
Good With Kids? Above Pagan shown with her week old litter. The child is a complete stranger who came with her family to visit the dogs. My dogs are trusting and friendly - even with a newborn litter!
