Introduction

The Jack Russell Terrier. I was always wary of small dogs as a young child. I was brought up with large Labradors and the though of a little dog scared me! But in September 2008 after my mum passed away my partner said we would get a dog to help with the grieving process! So I searched the internet and the only dog I could find was a Jack Russell!

Meeting the Puppies

I went along to the breeders house to meet the puppies and the mum. The mum herself a small jack Russell that was lovely and accepted me straight away. There was two puppies left a Female and Male. The Female I found to be very yappy and sniff around me! The male was much quieter and loveable. As you can guess I went home with the male Jack Russell, I called him Ben!.


At home.

Jack Russell's love to play, dig and cause trouble! My jack Russell didn't take to puppy pads but was great with paper based training which was great. Jack Russell's learn extremely quickly. When meeting my cat he accepted her straight away although I must admit now and again he likes to chase her but not in a nasty way! The breed are extremely playful and are very protective of their owners. He does not leave my side, he needs regularly walks or become distracted and destructive! They like to get there own way or they can get quite upset! They know how to pull the heart string. Getting messy is there middle name so regularly baths are a must.

In conclusion I would say that Jack Russell's are the ideal companion but not for someone who wants a lap dog as they have lots of energy. Their tempera mate is excellent he's brilliant with children, adults and dogs he knows alike. Excellent dog!
