I have two JRT puppies Rough Coat for sale. Ready 10-14-03.Healt Cert. and all shots current. Bowlinggang@aol.com 850-944-8205

I have a JRT that I bought about 5 days ago. I didn't get him from a breeder. I think he's about 7-9 weeks old. So, my problem is that I've heard and read that he should be basically psycotic, but he is no worse than a normal puppy... plus he sleeps A LOT! I wasn't too worried until today when my sister saw a JRT at a pet store that was about Jack's age and she couldn't even hold him because he was so playful. I know it sounds crazy but I'm worried that something is wrong with him and that's why he's so calm. Someone please respond... I'm very worried.

For sale my 2yr old Jack Russell named Abby. She is a smooth coat. White with a brown mask. She is potty trained, she will sit and come. Abby is a good and sweet dog. The reason for my selling her is, my finances have changed so that I can't take care of her. She needs some one who can take care of her and give her all the love I give her. If you are interested, please let me know. Thank you very much.

For sale: 4 JRT puppies; 2 female, 2 male. They were born July 27th, and are 10 wks. old. They have been wormed, but have not had any shots yet. They are smooth coats. If interested, PLEASE call 248-299-2626. I am in Michigan.

Hello! My name is Christiane Jones. I am currently employed at Rogersville Animal Hospital in Rogersville, MO. We have a contractual agreement with the city of Rogersville to vaccinate and board strays. After four days, if the dog is not claimed by the owner or adopted, we euthanize. At present, we have a male, intact Jack Russell Terrier (or Jack Russell mix) which is running out of time. I am paying the boarding costs to give this dog one more day to find a home. He was found wandering the parking lot of a local grocery store. He is quite friendly. Is good with kids and does not seem aggressive with other dogs. I do not know about his aggression with cats...we have two clinic cats but his exposure to them has been minimal. He is approximately 20lbs (probably much less but I don't have his chart with me at the moment) and very hyper. I can email photos. I would be willing to travel to meet someone halfway if it means giving this dog a second chance. Please contact me at syd@peoplepc.com or 417-767-4769 (message). My work number is 417-753-3344 and I can be reached there Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. I can house the dog up to a week at my home but I have nine other dogs and can not house another for longer than a week. My neighbors are already protesting about my current arrangments. If you can be of any assistance, I would greatly appreciate the help! Christiane Jones

My boyfriend and I adopted an almost 2 year old Jack Russell in July named Larry. He is SO attached to my boyfriend that if we start to hug or cuddle up, he will come running from across the room, squeeze up between us, and growl!! When he comes home from work, he jumps up on him and starts licking him and will not leave him alone! My boyfriend is very easygoing and doesn't discourage this clingy behavior. When he is at work, Larry follows me around sometimes but not the extent he follows him. Also, when we are at a strange place like someone else's home, he will whine or bark until my boyfriend returns. We went to the lake with his family over Labor Day and when he would be out of sight, Larry cried for him so much that it sounded like he was talking...his bottom lip even quivered! At home, he follows him everywhere and even waits outside the bathroom until he returns. Also, I am extremely ticklish. When my boyfriend tickles me, I start laughing. That really sets the dog off! I think he feels threatened because terriers are very protective. On one occasion, instead of pushing Larry off and telling him no and even though I was the one getting "attacked', he snapped at me and almost bit my face! It really scared me! I don't know if it is a Jack Russell thing or not. I grew up with a Fox Terrier and I remember the protectiveness but not this type of behavior. To complicate it further, I am not sure if his severe separation anxiety is because his former owners were forced to give him up! I would love to know if any other JRT owners have experiences like this.

I have a rescue JRT. The owner was going to have him put to sleep because he is so hyper. I admit that I understand her frustration!!! He is nicknamed son of satan. I will not give up on him but could use some good advise on what works with JRT's as I am really only used to working with Dobes but couldn't let him be put down for something that is really the original owners fault for never putting down any rules. Your helpd would be greatly appreciated.

I have been told that I have a dwarf jack russell, but I am interseted in breeding her...we are concerned there may be health risks, anyone with any info would be helpful Thanks

WE have a jack that is 9 months old and just completed her first heat. 100% certain she cannot be pregnant but she is displaying signs of lactation (two of her nipples are swelling badly like they are getting ready to lactate). is this NORMAL? a friend said it may mean that she has cists on her overies, which is causing the false pregnancy. if so, we need to have her fixed. We have also heard false pregnancy might just be normal in some dogs. PLEASE HELP. you may send me an email direct at BorderPhD@aol.com

I'm looking for a Jack Russell Terrier. I was hopeing to find one soon. Someone please help me!!!

Actually I have 2 rat terriers (1 male, 1 female). There was no message board for rats so I'll ask this here and see if anyone can help. My male is 3 yrs old and my female is almost 8 months old. I think she might have gotten pregnant in her first heat. What are the risks? Will she be ok? Everyone keeps saying they should'nt get pregnant until they are over 1 yr old. Has anyone ever had this happen, and were the puppies and mom ok? Thanks~

My four year old female has lost much of the hair around her eyes . Also the color of the hair that grew in is considerably lighter than the dark brown that was there before. My vet checked her for thyroidism and asked me about changes in shampoo, or cleaners we used in our home. If anyone know's of a possible reason I'd love to know!! Thanks, Linda

glad to see the message board up and running again

That AOL has a JRT message board, maybe I will go reek havoc.

I have a 1 year old male and female JRT, and their mother who is 3 years old. The male is attacking the mother on a frequent basis for no reason. Is he trying to establish a pecking order? The mother is becoming somewhat withdrawn. He has also bit me and my wife and will growl at us after an episode. The only thing that stops him is if I call his name and dont scold him.

Any thoughts or help would be appreciated

i CANT BELIEVE THAT THIS IS STILL GOING ON,

If Lance insists on ragging on everyone who posts on here, why dont

we all ignore his rantings, and just go about our days and post our

questions or advice, and not answer him?

its quite obvious he is going to complain over anything anyone else says

lets all just ignore him, if he posts, dont give him the time of day.

hopefully, hell go away : >

Thank you Patti. I would still register my dogs with the JRTCA if they would let me. I miss the shows and all.

Sorry - it cut off what I was saying:

I know a bunch of people that had been doing UKC agility and enjoyed it.

I have not changed my breeding program nor did I run out and buy a bunch of new dogs from JRTAA members to fit in. I breed for a 12-13" dog who can and does still hunt. It is a shame people have this be all end all image of the club as the best while it is better than some but far from perfect. Every dog I breed / show has been BAER tested and Cerf. tested.

My motto is if you dont rescue then dont breed. I have done rescue for as long as I have bred. Everyone cant stand backyard breeders but they all bought their dogs from someone so before everyone casts a stone please look close since it could be one of yours if you dont : 1. Sell with a contract. 2. Keep in touch with owners 3. Put a clause stating they are to return the dog if they cant keep it. Most backyard breeders get their dogs from the horse show crowd, pet shops or were given this dog! Most re

Im sorry to say that this particular page is PATHETIC! I came in here looking to rescue a Jack Russell...but gosh, listening, or rather reading all of you bickering........ man....Id rather have ALL the dogs live with me and be happy....geeez! If any of you have a Jack Russell that youre tired of let me know.....hell be happy here at my house for sure! BTW...we have 6 acres of open field and a big house for any animal to be happy in :)

Funny, everyone thinks that the waiting until 1 year and getting a vet health certificate is so wonderful and the perfect way to keep problems down. But, I know a lady that was a friend of the vets and she filled out her own vet certificates and got the vet to sign them and he never saw the dogs. I know people who have had their dogs ears surgically corrected and had braces put on their dogs teeth. And of course, at one year, go to another vet and get a health certificate. And when this was reported to the club, they didnt want to hear it. Again, it is up to the breeder, not the clubs to determine whether or not to breed that dog. No registry club is perfect, they all have their faults. If a dog is sold on full registration as a pup and their is nothing wrong with it, it is up to the new owner to determine whether that pup should be bred. If they buy a dog on limited registration, and want to switch to full registration, we require that they get a vet certificate before we will

Oklahoma Trial October 7 and 8th.

Is anybody going to the Louisville,KY trial?

Is anybody going to the Louisville,KY trial?

Well gee.. If you dont give the buyer a stud cert and a pedigree they cant register the pup with the JRTCA once the dog is a year old. They can spay/neuter and record the dog, thats it!

<>

And to register with the JRTCA you have to have a 4 generation pedigree, stud certificate, photos, etc. So whats so great about how the AKC does it?

Well they cant register them if the breeder doesnt give the stud cert and ped now can they? And puppies a

The probelm I think was that this breeder had an awful lot of turn over is a short period of time, dogs are not disposable. I have stayed out of that debate cause I dont know all the issues, but that is my opinion. Yes we all have an ocassional terrier that we might place ,but from the list I saw that was quite a few and maybe someone is being to picky looking for the perfect dog(no such thing) ,to me it almost seems like she will never be happy. If I was a breeder of excess I wouldnt let her have one of mine with that kind of history.What will she find wrong a spot in the wrong place? And then down the road he goes.I know from horses and friends that show all over it takes more than just a nice terrier or horse to be a "big winner", politics is a factor .I also notice that she is making a purchase with a currently popular kennel name, this will not automatically get you a win. You got to pay your dues and jumping from dog to dog is not gonna cut it.

it took months for me to locate a breeder who would even talk to me

about a new pup, if I had been limited to phone and snail mail,

I could never have done it, now Im hoping to hear from the only one

who would be honest and open with me, I have a deposit down on a

male tri ESS, and will be co-owning with the breeder, the only other

breeder who had contacted me, wanted $950.00 for one on neuter contract.

after I had made it known to him that I wanted to show and eventually

breed this pup, now how is that right? yah, I use the net for shopping

for dogs, and why else would any of us list on the web?

now wasnt that exchange so much better than before, thats more like it.

its nice to see Lance does know how to be civil.

as for an abundance of fox, I know that where Im located, we are starting

to see alot more foxes everywhere.

On the few occasions ive been out walking in the woods with them they would catch a scent and be off baying just like a foxhound. Not good for me cause Id have to go look for em but I do love to hear them. <<<<<<<<

Im sorry mary, I just about fell out of my chair laughing my ass off, you dont have JRTs you have beagels . I have been working terriers for about 20 yrs and never have I seen a JRT run off hunting and baying into the air LOL.You really have never worked your terriers ,just admit it. I wont hate you. Your just learning.
