Hello, I recently purchased a dog from a pet store registered as a jack russell terrier. I have taken him to a puppy training class and the trainer does not trust/believe he is full JRT. I have no clue, I just trusted what the pet store said? Pictures below are from him at 3-months old. Thoughts..?

I am new to the forum so hi everybody.. I am soon to receive a jack Russell puppy to my family. It is 4 weeks old now and still with his mother and I am told that he is pure breed (without papers). I wonder if someone can help me by telling me if he indeed looks like a pure breed from his...

Hi! Does anyone know what breed mixes with a Jack Russell to breed a Miniature Jack Russell? I’ve also heard there’s the “Toy Jack Russell” and a teacup sized too? thanks

We have a four year old Jack Russell mix. He’s 45 lbs and we cannot figure out what he is mixed with. We always assumed maybe a mix of terriers and he does have a tendency to curl his paw and point when he sees an animal in a tree. I saw a rat terrier today and was surprised at how much they...

Some background, before this adoption I had a chihuahua/dachshund mix that I adopted with my partner when he was 9 months old. My partner and I are no longer together and the dog unfortunately lives with her - but that's what was best for both of them. I had a lot of regret after that adoption...

Hi folks. i have a 3 year old male jack russell. Me and my ex partner got him when we were still together. After a while she has been in contact asking me to take him because he is to much for her and the kids. I have had him with me for a couple of months now but i cant seem to get him to...

Hey there! I'm new here :) I'm Maya. I'm 13 years old and I own 2 dogs (and a cat haha)! Peanut is a 7 yr old deaf Chihuahua x. He did agility in the past, but never compete. He did a few demos at fairs though! Peanut can get his NTD, ITD and ATD title (I'm just too cheap to order them! haha)...

Hi everybody. We adopted a rescue Jack Russell mix two months ago, he's three years old, and he is having trouble staying in his kennel. The first week he was here, he was okay with going in the kennel to sleep, probably because he didn't trust us or our home 100% yet and the kennel meant...

I'm currently in the process of moving into a new apartment. My roommate is a stranger who I met on Craigslist, and she has been living in the apartment for the past two years. She has a 6 year old Jack Russell mix. The first time I came to the apartment to take a look, my roommate-to-be was...

If possible could someone please help me identify this strange wart which has only recently appeared on my puppy's front leg (elbow joint). It appears to be getting larger within the few days which I first noticed it. My dog is an 11th month miniature Jack Russell. Has anyone else ever had a...

Hello everyone, I just joined this forum because I am so devastated and really need some help. About 4 months ago, I took my 12 year old Jack Russel for a walk and out of nowhere, a bigger dog came from behind a fence and immediately bit my dog in the rear/hind leg area. Even though the vet...

I have an older Jack Russell mix, we don't know her exact age (nor are we really sure she has Jack Russell in her at all she just has that look to her face, kind of like a rough coated Jack Russell) as she was a rescue. She normally is on the passive side unless riled up or in a playful mood. I...

I think that you should have an area for the different dog types, where you can talk to people who have the same dog as you. I feel this would be great because if you have a problem that another person who has the same dog as you then you can talk to them on it. Anyone else like this area? Feel...

Hey guys - I haven't posted much, so I'll give you a brief description to catch you up to speed. We adopted Burly from the Humane League in early November - he's a Jack Russell/Beagle mix, and at this point he's a few months shy of being two. Indoors, he's extremely well trained - He knows how...

Maggie (Deaf) (Female) (Spayed at 6mo) is a 13 yr old 11 pound chihauhau mix and has lost her hearing. Riley (blind)(male) (neutuered only 4 mo ago) is a 7 yr old, 15 lb Jack Russell and has been blind from cataracts since he was about 2. These 2 dogs have lived together and shared everything...

Hi guys! You probably get people joining up just for a single answer and then never coming back all the time, but this isn't the case with me, even though my first post is a question. Okay, so I'll explain the story. A friend of my boss at work had a litter of Jack Russell Terriers and asked...

I have had my dog Louie (female) for 2 years now. When I got her I was told she was Jack Russell/Chihuahua. She weighs 12lbs, has medium energy. She seems to have the chihuahua tail, and her ears stand straight up, but are much more rounded then a chihuahua's. She also looks much less...

This is a rescue dog (2 weeks with us) and vet says he has stage 1 heartworms. Going to start the treatment this week and once the injections are given the vet says 30 days of keeping him calm, which may mean 30 days in a kennel. Can anyone give me some advice on how to keep a terrier (not too...

Kyras a 9 month old Jack Russell/Min Pin mix. Her old owner said she had just shed her puppy coat (though I have never seen a dog do this?! I have read about it?!... Anybody clarify?) Anywho, her fur is now very thin and she has quite dry skin. It is thinnest on top of her head and her back...
