Marma's Cairn Terriers! We have puppies that were born in January and in February that are ready now. The price of my puppies are $2000 for Companion Dogs, and Show/Breeding select puppies will be $3000-3500+. I am a responsible breeder, certainly NOT a puppy mill, and all my females are on a healthy breeding schedule. The number of people contacting me about getting a puppy is occasionally overwhelming, and I want to spend our time taking care of my puppies and dogs. I appreciate your understanding – though patience is difficult, I understand.
They come to you with first vaccines, microchipped, wormed, AKC registration papers, and socialized. contact form above.

. I am in Oregon, on the west coast with airports close - Eugene airport 40 miles south, - or Portland airport 65 miles north. I can meet you at the airport - or contact me about possible delivery options. I ship my puppies with Odyssey Private Pet Transport for their safety and comfort. But I also encourage people to come to pick up their puppy, and many have driven or flown in from out of state.

Sweet Caroline wanted someone to cuddle! Can't you tell? She is a sweetheart (under that terrier personality) She joined her new home in November 2025!

Buddy is so agreeable to anything you want to do - take his picture, cuddle, run in the yard, or sleep in your lap! Personality plus! He is smiling for you! He went to his home in fall 2022.

Puppy activities can be fun!
This is my granddaughter, Alaira giving a puppy a "checkup" in the Veterinary Office play set that she received for Christmas!
It's a PUPPY TRAIN! My granddaughter and a friend came to play with the puppies, so they got lots of fun, new experiences!
This is Talon - from Ch. Higgin's Checkov and Ch. Zippy - She earned a major win and 9 points, but didn't enjoy the shows, so she returned home and had puppies. She would would grab an empty milk jug and RUN across the field with it! She is now retired with a family.
Eric C met little Eric (who became ET) and it was love at first sight! Having tragically lost his 19 year old Parson Russell Terrier Service Dog, he was devastated and needs all the love and cuddles that this little guy willingly gives! They went through Service Dog Training and meeting the two of them at a festival or home show, ET is a totally different dog than the wild pup who loves to join the other youngsters every week for puppy play date. A true natural! Man and dog were inseparable until Eric's passing, in April, 2021.

Sarge - returned according our breeder's agreement and re-placed with a new family!
***OUR GUARANTEE FOR MY PUPPIES SAYS THAT IF THE PUPPY EVER NEEDS A NEW HOME, THAT I WILL FIND THAT HOME FOR THEM AND THEY ARE TO RETURN BACK TO ME********and Summer 2016 seems to be a time of medical issues causing puppy returns (people medical issues or cancellations - not puppy illnesses). Sarge was returned by his family when Grampa required more care, and they were afraid he was getting bored with less time to spend with him. "Bring him back", I told them - and he happily settled in with another family who had been waiting for a pup.
May 25, 2014 I had a puppy returned. His owner had medical issues and family changes all at once, and Jericho couldn't be handled there anymore. He left in early June to be with his new family and big brother, a Cairn Terrier, in Idaho!
December 2024. I got a call from an Oregon Shelter that had a cairn with it's chip registered to me. He returned and since we exhausted all efforts to find the original buyer, he went to a home where he is loved!
February 2025. Coco, a terrier mix adult was trusted in my care to find a home for. She was NOT my breeding or related to my dogs, but the family had split as the kids grew up, and lived in an apartment that didn't agree with Coco. She is now settled in nicely with a new Mom with a yard and lots of love.
May 2025. A one year old male pup had been sold to an older couple just shortly before Dad developed major cardiac issues. The daughter came to help out with Dad, and the pup grew up a bit wild. He returned here, and is being rehomed with a breeder in Idaho-and they LOVE him.

AUGUST 30, 2012. A SWEET LADY IN SALEM OREGON HAD PASSED AWAY AND LEFT MAGGIE, A 4 YEAR OLD, SPAYED FEMALE CAIRN TERRIER. SHE RETURNED TO US AND WAS PLACED WITHIN HOURS WITH AN OLDER WOMEN WHO WAS DEPRESSED AT HAVING LOST HER DOG COMPANION A SHORT TIME AGO AND HAD EVEN REFUSED TO LEAVE HER HOME FOR FAMILY DINNERS BECAUSE IT WAS TOO PAINFUL TO COME HOME TO AN EMPTY HOUSE. THE WOMAN'S DAUGHTER CAME AND PICKED UP MAGGIE AND A DELIGHTFUL NEW LIFE WAS STARTED FOR HER AND HER NEW FRIEND. A MUTUAL ADMIRATION SOCIETY, I'M SURE.****************
Happy day, December 8, 2016 new home for Frankie - replaces sad day - 11-10-2016, Frankie returned to us again due to divorce. Following is the info from the first time he returned as Tommy. (1-17-2014 We have ...completed our “executive task” of finding Tommy the perfect new family – with one of his sisters! She is Roxie, a Maggie and Checkov pup and 5 months old and was being a challenge for her busy family, though they have already completed beginning puppy classes with her. Now they have Tommy to help out with the busy pup AND the two busy little girls. We took him to their home in Eugene, Oregon today and the pups were running laps around the couch, and Roxie could not seem to catch Tommy! They will have fun together, I’m sure, as they hit it off right away and the family has a big back yard for them to play in, also! He is right at home and his former family can take that job in China with out worrying about Tommy!

This little guy is Magellan - truckin' and ready for his home on the Oregon Coast. He already came by to visit again!

Wee Mikey is joined his family in 2015 on a farm in Eastern Washington with several big dogs, sheep, geese, and lots of fun. Now his daughter, Corona, and more girls are part of a breeding program to isolate a "Teflon" or working dog coat that does not collect burrs.

Little Kylie is going to be joining one of our 2016 spring puppies to be learning earthdog hunting and living on a farm. She will have fun!

Our granddaughter is constantly in the pen with these puppies to make sure they are all getting enough to eat! They don't even care if they are picked up - it is normal!
Contact us through the form below.
I have show potential puppies occasionally from our Champion stud dogs, 2025 Champion Hawk Hollow Rusty Hinges, and, 2023 Champion Marma's King Arthur. The puppies all leave here well socialized, and noise accustomed since their sunny day play time is in a pen that is close to the busy highway. They have their AKC papers, first shots, Vet checkup, and micro chipped, handled, cuddled, read to, dressed in doll clothes, loved and exposed to confusion and noise (hey, that's life here). There will be a $20 charge for registering their microchip in your name, with me as a default contact (which recently allowed a lost cairn to be returned to me by an Oregon shelter).
When you would like to send a deposit for a puppy, read the guidelines on this page (scroll down, down, down, on this page) so you know what the expectations and limitations are.
I will be taking deposits of half the puppy's price and you will choose your pup according the order the deposits are received.

This is a Maggie puppy from a previous litter. Here is Cade, riding high on the pick-up truck. Poor little guy was playing with his siblings in the grass and got an abscess on his chest. We dashed him off to the vet where he dazzled all the staff, sleeping through the pokes and prods to get his problem fixed. He is healing nicely and growing well, too. This was spring, 2014
 Sisters, sisters, just two little sisters! Different as day and night - they are lucky to be going different ways, because they are scrapping with each other already! Colette's pups, Spring 2014
Here is Miles - just truckin' along! Miles joined his family by plane on the East Coast and didn't even bat an eyelash at the big old airplane - just one more adventure - easy going after driving this dump truck. Fall, 2013

This is a Maggie puppy from a previous litter. This guy is trying to be the smartest pup on the block, but does riding in a school bus make you smarter? Spring 2014
This little boy is ready for hard work - or playing hard, whichever comes first! Spring 2014
Oh, what a funny joke! But the new puppies coming this fall will be as cute as we are - but we have grown up and live in California now - both of us! Meena's pups, spring 2013

Hi
Norma, I want to let you know that our puppy you brought us on Thursday is doing
great, she has settled in and is very busy playing with our Basset Hound, Maggie,
they are good friends already. We named her Scooter, because she scoots around
the house at a dead run most of the time. We love her. I will send you some pictures when I
can get her to stand still long enough. Healthy, happy and well adjusted, we are
pleased, Thank-you again. Suzie from Redding, California

Notes from puppy buyers:
Hi, Norma our ride home was great. Oz did
really good - we decided to call him Oz - not Whiz (for Wizard). He is so sweet we love him! I will be sending you a video of his first day with us. He loves Sweetie, our cat, as she does him. Bo, our lab, doesn't care either way. He's silly! We stopped in a park on our way home and Oz and Mclovin, the chihuahua played so cute! I'm so happy we found you - thanks Karen, Oz, and family.
***********************************************
Hi Norma , just want to let you know that baby, Jasmine is doing great! You have done such a wonderful job preparing her for her new life. She is up for anything and is the sweetest, smartest little mischief maker ever. Love her.
Thanks again!!! Judi

Here is a double PUP-O-LANTERN! These are Maggie and Checkov's pups from fall 2013.

"Just wanted to let you know Cailen is doing fabulous. Adjusting well to everything. Likes to sleep on the top of my head. I think the short hair reminds of someone...
If I move he immediately starts nuzzling like he's looking for a nipple. Doesn't find one, and goes right back to sleep.
Very cute. He is sporting a very stylish collar with a little blue bow - he has his name tag as well as a little bell...not that he ever goes too far...but just in case. He looks very dapper. I'll send you a picture.
Hope you have a great trip back. Delightful to meet both of you in person!"
Camilla and Cailen

A bit of spring sunshine, a litter of pups, and kids - what more could either kids or pups want! They sure had fun! Taken 3-3-13.

A sunny day, kids, puppies, what can be more fun! These are Maggie's puppies

Here are the neighbor kids cuddling the last litter of puppies! Such fun!
This little girl, Gigi, went with Tanner to live with Paul and Pat in Roseburg, Oregon. She is a real cuddler, even when she revs up this little Barbie car! Such a sweetheart.
Alaira seems to always be carrying Tanner around, and he never minds a bit! He went with his sister, Gigi, to live in Roseburg, Oregon.
Here is "Sally's Girl" who became Rosie when she arrived with her family in Alaska.
|
Tanner loves to romp and wrestle with his brothers. He loves taking naps under the rose bush and playing with the neighbor kids. He went with his sister to live with Paul & Pat in Roseburg, Oregon
Libbie's Boy is the first to put his ear up! Yea! Such a cutie. He has a home in Cooper's Landing Alaska!
Alaira likes to push the little girl puppies in the stroller - dolls are so unresponsive? Oh, well, pups are more fun.
|
enjoy the photos
of puppies and kids.
Proof that our puppies have had reading lessons that will put them WELL AHEAD of the other puppies in their class! Alaira is a good teacher! This puppy was from a previous litter.
Dandy went to a family in Washington!Dandy is the darker male and just loves to be cuddled when the neighbor children come to play.
|
Jenna (to be Izzy) left for Vancouver Washington with her new family just after this last nap together! And Dandy became Roscoe with his Gig Harbor family.
