1. They have enormous self-confidence
Bred to hunt foxes, the Jack Russel had to exude confidence. The goal was for the Jack Russel to chase the fox out of its den so the hunters could catch it. Because of this, they are very agile and small but are full of self-confidence.
2. Jack Russel's can burn
Dogs, despite having fur, can still burn. The Jack Russel is especially susceptible to this because of the light colors of their fur and skin. So be careful with your dog in the sun!
3. A Jack Russel will not be happy in an apartment.
These dogs are happiest of all when they are outside. This is because they are very hyper-active and eager to work. It is in their nature to be outdoors because they used to be used a lot as hunting and guard dogs. So get out and about with them.
4. Train them from an early age
This is important for any breed, of course, but especially with a Jack Russel you will benefit very much from this. They need clear boundaries to live in harmony with people. When this is taught from puppyhood they will not easily show other (unwanted) behavior.
5. This is absolutely the very best breed to retrieve with
There is almost no breed that gets more enthusiastic about a tennis ball, and then bringing it back. Some owners and Petbnb sitters even report that they enjoy "being on target" and throwing the ball back as well.
