They are active and enterprising. They are full of personality and are known for their whimsy.

Appearance

The Jack Russell Terrier does not grow taller than 28 cm. It has a white coat with smooth or rough hair, and large areas of black and / or brown. His cute hanging ears and alert look complete his roguish appearance. Still, this rascal looks quite robust and strong compared to other small breeds.

Other particulars

A Jack Russell needs a lot of attention and constant stimulation. They will adapt to an apartment if they get a lot of exercise. Still, ideal for this four-legged friend is a medium-sized enclosed garden to play around. This dog is also constantly shedding. If you brush it regularly to remove loose hair, the hair loss is not too bad. It is also important to trim his nails regularly. And you should be careful when feeding this dog, as Jack Russel Terriers tend to be overweight. If given the necessary attention and care, they can live to be 13-14 years old.
