Our Mission Statement

The Biewer Terrier Club of America, Inc.® was formed to “Preserve and Protect” the integrity of the Purebred Biewer Terrier Breed. To encourage and promote quality in the breeding of the purebred Biewer Terrier according to the Standard accepted by the Biewer Terrier Club of America and The American Kennel Club.

From its unique beginnings, the Biewer Terrier evolved through careful development before arriving in the U.S. , where it continued to grow into the beloved companion we know today.

Striving For Excellence in Our Biewer Terriers

Thank you for your support and dedication to producing the happiest, healthiest Biewer Terriers possible.

Biewer Terrier DNA testing has been paramount to the success of the Biewer Terrier with its introduction to the United States. From health-related testing to DNA breed testing, the science behind the Biewer Terrier is unsurpassed.

The BTCA, Inc. is focused on the betterment of the Biewer, maintaining the standard of the breed with excellent structure and healthy canines.

We owe Dr. Paul Jones of Mars Veterinary a huge debt of gratitude for hearing our concerns about the Biewer Terrier and agreeing that it was indeed a breed of its own and not a purebred Yorkshire Terrier. As we told him the story that came with the dogs from Germany, he agreed to help us find the truth. We spent many months talking with him as he dug deep into the genetic make-up of every line that came out of Germany.
