Corn Row is proud to announce its long term participation in both the UC Davis and University of Missouri genetic research for Eye Diseases in the breed. The University of Missouri has identified the gene causing the egregious condition known as Primary Lens Luxation (PLL) for the canine. A simple DNA cheek swab will give breeders the opportunity to identify which of their breeding stock may carry the gene producing PLL. By selectively breeding of non carriers to non carriersand non carriers to carriers of the PLL gene the horrid condition can be eliminated.

Always on the cutting edge of genetic testing for the breeds, Corn Row has had over the years, 19 dogs registered to date in both University studies, and has an additional 8 dogs yet to be tested. As soon as the results are forth coming on each dog, the results will be posted on this web site as well as the RoHM Register. Corn Row considers it is part of the solution rather than part of the problem. We will not and have never bred affected dogs.

Check back with us from time to time as Corn Row Terriers hit the show ring earning their championships or enter the hunt field earning their working certificates. Follow our puppies as they mature and enter the world of the show and working dog. As events happen at Corn Row with the terriers and their people, we'd love to be able to share it with you; so please do stop back by. Corn Row Terriers are registered with The American Kennel Club and the United Kennel Club. Corn Row Kennels proudly supports generic testing of all breeding terriers and we are registered with the RoHM Register of Health and Merit for the Parson (Jack) Russell Terrier.
