UKC Conformation Champion
IABCA Conformation Champion
"Zeus" is an exceptional young male imported from a distinguished Cairn Terrier breeding program in Ukraine. He comes from internationally accomplished bloodlines that reflect generations of dedication to preserving the quality and traditional characteristics of the breed.
His paternal grandsire, CH Hjohoo's I'm Addicted to Hjo, earned Best of Breed at the 2026 Cairn Terrier Club of America National Specialty. His littermate, GCHB CH E'Rit Ventus Amadeus Arbor Vitae, is an AKC Bronze Grand Champion who has earned Terrier Group wins and an Award of Merit at the 2025 AKC National Championship.
Zeus himself embodies the qualities we value in a traditional Cairn Terrier: excellent breed type, sound structure, a beautiful harsh coat, and the rugged, unmistakable appearance of this historic Scottish breed.
Already a UKC and IABCA Conformation Champion, Zeus is currently being campaigned toward his AKC Championship. We are excited to incorporate his exceptional heritage into future generations of Northwest Cairn Terriers.

More about Zeus
Zeus is a beautiful cairn terrier with a sturdy and correct conformation. He compliments our females well and some of our favorite features he brings to the table are a nice head, great angulation, black points, and overall quality. Zeus is bred to be a show dog and does not have a prey drive making him a great fit as a sire for pet homes or families new to the breed. Like most imported Cairn Terriers, Zeus is somewhat larger than our ideal as we breed to the AKC standard and we hope to bring the size down in the next generation by pairing him with our American bred females.
