We have a cross mini foxy and Jack Russell.(Baby) Couldn’t ask for a more love-able dog. She loves to hunt for anything bugs, lizards etc. She is very well behaved. She loves visitors, we have made a point of telling her to stay down when she jumps up, works most of the time but not always. They seem to be very intelligent dogs and learn quickly. She can open our Patio door but we cant get her to shut it behind her lol. I do have a question about breeding her. She is about 3 1/2 kilos is tall not stout and has a rough coat. My concern is if she would have any problems with giving birth. Has anyone bred their cross. Our neighbour bought the same breed after meeting baby and wants to breed them. He is shorter and stocky a bit heavier and smooth coat. I’m sure they would have lovely puppies but I don’t want to take a chance of losing baby. I would appreciate any feed back.

I have a 7 month old Mini Foxi x jack russel named puk he is over excited all the time when we get visitors and jumps all over them. i was wondering if i could get some info on how to stop him being so
excited and jumping all over people? i also wanted more info on the bread please!
puk is the most enjoyable puppy i cant wait till he grows older and has puppys of his own because they will have his beautiful personality.

I have a JR She is 8 & half YO. White and black. Her name is Fredd. She is my great companion. Loves going to Dog Obedience Club,(passed Gr. 3) and knows that when I put on the Club Jumper, it is Club morning. Loves meeting her friends, and making new ones, both 2 legged and 4 legged. She is a people person. Puts herself to bed, (under the doona) whilst I am on the computer. Loves the back yard, checks it out for anything that she reckons should not be there. I am definately HER Person.

We have recently inherrited a 6 year old Jack Russell but he has not been trained and jumps all over us as soon as we go outside which is incredibly irritating when we have nice clean clothes on. I have tried turning my back to him so he will sit but he will just jump at my from behind and when I don’t pay him attention he will start biting. Any training ideas on how to make this stop?

We had a rough coated Jack Russell for 17 years and he was a wonderful dog. Unfortunately now every little terrier seems to be referred to as a Jack Russell.

Hi, we had a lovely Jack Russell named Rambo, he was 14 years old and we lost him to snake bite 7 years ago – it was a terrible shock – the vets didn’t realise it was snake bite until too late, all the treatment he had was unable to save him. We buried him under one of his favourite trees and placed flowers there regularly until we sold our property and moved into town leaving Rambo in his final resting place. We got him for our youngest child who was afraid to play outside and they fell in love with each other immediately, and together had a very happy childhood with our other four children and us. It took a few years before we could have another canine family member and now we have Scruffy who is just as much a loved one as Rambo, they would have been good comrades in crime together, bye Marion
