The Jack Russell terrier". People often misapply the term "Jack Russell" to other small tan and white terriers. The Jack Russell is a broad type, with a size range of 25-38 cm (10-15 in). The Russell terrier is smaller at 20-30 cm (8-12 in), while the Parson Russell only reaches a middle range with a standard size of 30-36 cm (12-14 in).

Jack Russells are an energetic breed that relies on a high level of exercise and stimulation. They are relatively free from any serious health complaints. Originating from dogs bred and used by the Reverend John Russell in the early 19th century, from whom the breed takes its name, the Jack Russell has similar origins to the modern Fox Terrier. It has undergone several changes over the years, corresponding to kennel clubs' different uses and breed standards. Parent societies of the breed have opposed the Jack Russell breed's recognition by kennel clubs, leading to the breeding and recognition of the Parson Russell terrier.

Temperament

The Jack Russell terrier is a happy, energetic dog with a strong desire to work. This breed is most content when given companionship and a job to do. Digging is normal for a Jack Russell, especially if he decides it is his job to free your yard from rodents! They are born with the ability to hunt; it's in their nature. The desire to hunt combined with a high energy level makes training a must for Jack Russell. You will never win a battle of wills with a Jack Russell.

Because he is a baying terrier, Jack Russell can be vocal. However, these dogs are alert and make excellent watchdogs. The breed is naturally assertive and may not tolerate young children or other animals in the home. They can especially be aggressive toward other dogs.

Their high energy and drive make these dogs ideally suited to a number of different dog sports, such as flyball or agility. We also recommend obedience classes to potential owners, as Jack Russells, if not properly socialized, can be stubborn at times and aggressive towards other animals and humans. Condominium or apartment dwellers should not consider these dogs, despite their small size, unless they are prepared to undertake the challenging responsibility of providing them with the required exercise and stimulation. They have a tremendous amount of energy for their size, a fact that can sometimes lead to trouble involving larger animals. They may seem never to tire and will still be energetic after their owner has called it a day. While socialized members of the breed are friendly towards children, they will not tolerate abuse, even if it is unintentional.
