Jack Russell Reviews

We took over a two year old Jack Russell almost two months ago, from some friends who were moving house and couldn't take him with them. My husband and kids had been campaigning to have a dog for several years, but I wasn't keen as I knew that I would end up being the one doing all the walks etc and didn't think I could cope with the extra work. ...  Read the complete review

My two drive me potty. Yap yap yapping at anything that startles them. But I adore them regardless. Back in 2003, I was burgled. Nothing extraordinary in that, but my then partner decided we needed a guard dog to prevent it happening again. Mmm. I wasn't convinced, but he said he would do everything as he'd had dogs growing ...  Read the complete review

AHH the jack russell... another marmite moment, you either love them or hate them. The closest to having a wolf in your home...well in their mind anyway.

Ah the Jack Russell Terrier, where do i begin! I have experienced many breeds of dog in my lifetime and to be honest, the Jack Russell really stood out from the crowd. This is a dog with incredibly high energy levels and a constant need for attention. Probably one of the funniest breeds around, this dog is always getting up to mischief when ...  Read the complete review

I love my jack Russell's always have always will but I am aware that they have feisty little characters. I will probably be able to write the longest review in history about these little doggies but I'm not into long reviews: too long to write too long to read. Anyways here I go.. These dogs have been around since the 19th century, they ...  Read the complete review

What to say about the Jack Russell terrier? Well firstly, I love them, although my experiences have been widely more negative than positive. We acquired our first Jack Russell, Buster, some years ago when I was a teenaer stil in school. He was the achetypal Jack Russell Terrier, short body, short legs, very small, predominantly white ...  Read the complete review

I was somewhat skeptical abut having a Jack Russell as the ones I had encountered before owning my own were not positive experiences. We were bought one at 13 weeks old by a 'friend' three christmases ago as a companion for our golden labrador and border collie! As she was a lot smaller than the other two dogs, she spent the first couple of ...  Read the complete review

I immeadiatly liked little ...  Read the complete review

Jack Russell Terriers have been around for years and have a long life expectancy generally due to their excellent genetic gene pool. They haven't been in bred like some pedigree dogs so you see far less of the health problems. The only health problem that I can think of is that some of them are completely bonkers! I think puppy ...  Read the complete review

Having sadly lost my dog last November, I and our other dog Jess were deeply upset. I had mentioned when my sister first got her Jack Russell how great she is with my son and how cute she is, needless to say he brought me a Jack Russell puppy home a few weeks later. Luna is now very much part of our family although extremely mischeivous but with a ...  Read the complete review

As an avid Jack Russell fan, imagine my dismay too learn about my Friends reaction after her recent purchase. After a period of living alone my Friend (I'll call her Justine because that's her name) decided she needed a little companion to protect her. Little did she realise that after a few fantastic puppy filled months, Todd would ...  Read the complete review

Jack Russell’s are incredibly loving and devoted, they are full of energy and highly amusing. They are good with children - as long as the child has been taught NOT to pull or tease the dog. However I do recommend that they dog does get used to a bit of rough treatment whilst he is still a puppy (obviously not rough enough to cause any harm ...  Read the complete review

~ ~ I don’t like Jack Russell Terriers me, or should I say I didn’t like Jack Russell Terriers up until relatively recently. ~ ~ There was good reason for my dislike of Jacks, and I’m fairly sure the dislike was mutual, as they didn’t seem to get along with me either. My first experience of Jacks was back when I was only a slip of ...  Read the complete review
