| Before you decide to have a Jack
Russell Terrier in your home, please make sure that you can provide
all the attention and needs that it required. Even though the
Jack Russell is a small dog, it has more energy, and attitude
then you could ever imagine. The Jack
Russell Terrier is a great companion and friend. The Jack Russell
is one of the most intelligent dogs on the planet. Jack Russell’s
were originally used for hunting below ground, so they are likely
to chase after another animal or squirrel. Jack Russells love
to dig and can escape easily under a poorly built fence area,
they can even jump up to 4 feet from a standing position and
are also great climbers.
Jack Russell’s do not always work well with
small children as they do not tolerate rough treatment, like
having their ears pulled on, etc. The Jack Russell is not a
“yapper” but will certainly bark at noises or when someone comes
to the door.
Be sure to puppy proof your home, Jacks for
example are natural diggers so houseplants and garden plants
should be placed out of reach, especially since some of them
can be deadly if eaten. Jack Russells love crates and use them
as little homes even after they are potty trained.
Jack Russell Terriers require a lot of exercise
and will follow closely at your heels around your home.
