This breed has got to go!  I mean they attack CHILDREN gor god's sake!  No breed worth having around would ever, in a million years do that.  And no need to ask for stats and crap, I've got a documented case right here that proves once and for all that Jack Russell's are just as deadly as pit bulls and they need to go!

Vicious bastards

Well I have a JRT and I read up first, how they will kill a cat even if it had grown up with the cat for years. How they are some of the most hard wired dogs. How small animals are a no-no around them. They can be crazy, and how only experienced owners only should own these dogs.

Ban them.




After all, it is for the children.

My Jack Russel is very vicious when she catches squirrels!  She grabs them by the neck and very violently shakes the shit out of them.  It apparently breaks their spine instantly.  But she leaves our cats alone.

They are terriers, after all. I have a female JRT. I'm having difficulty getting the wife to understand the nuances.

They are small, but their teeth are wicked implements. And they are furious little bundles of muscle, sinew and energy, and possess an uncanny intelligence. Pound for pound, they are possibly the most powerful dogs out there. Not many other dogs can jump four to five times their own height.

I love my dogs, but I suspect my JRT would eat me if I died and nobody found me before she ran out of food.

From what I read it could be years and years, but one day you could come home to pieces of your  cat every where. How you can off leash train them, like mine, but one day they could just bolt and be gone.....................so....will see, I also have a cat

My neighbor had two JRT's. They fought like crazy.

One day he was playing tennis ball fetch with the bitch and he threw the ball out into the yard.
She launched off the deck and came back with the ball, dragging two feet of muddy gut.
Dropped the ball and started jinking around for him to toss it again.

After he got back from the vet, he found the problem.
She had caught a popped nail at the edge of the deck and it had slit her belly.
The dog didn't care at all, just wanted to play some more.

Hard-wired indeed.
One of the strongest prey drives you'll find in any domestic animal.

Perfect description of ours-my wife bought her as a rat terrier but she shows more JRT traits than RT traits. STUBBORNEST dog I have ever seen, and extremely size blind. She bit a 120 pound Rottweiler. Every bit as strong as you describe, and as far as jumping, she does that too, but my Italian greyhound takes the crown for jumps. About 14" at the shoulder and she can jump nose high on an adult. We say if anyone breaks in they're in trouble. The IG lones everyone, so she'll get the intruder off guard while the terrier takes them apart starting with the ankles.

She won't get very far before I get there with hollowpoints though.

The JRT is a vicious animal.  Had one in the neighborhood a few years back, glad when the owners moved out.  Treat them like coyotes (40gr ballistic tips).

My Mom fosters JRTs,and if a prospective adoptee has cats/no fenced in yard,they will not have the Jack.

They're tough little dogs,really just a smaller Pit Bull,and they WILL take out cats. Easily as quick as a cat too,and once there becomes a problem,well,it's pretty much bye-bye for cat.

Very mischievous,they can get with other dogs to make it even worse,and they can even take over a nuclear armed submarine(and I do believe Trident SLBMs trump anything anyone can come up with)USS Alabama.

I made the mistake of teasing one of my Mom's fosters(Dig-Dug),super quick,he jumped up and bit,coming within an inch of chomping on the jewels. These dogs are VERY quick,and can damned near read minds. They look a person right in the eye,this unnerves some folks.

Apparently you haven't seen a JRT attack.  They are extremely strong and very persistent.  They will not give up.  My JRT will play tug-of-war with me and fall asleep while still holding on to a rope.  She is asleep, but wont let go!

I'm on my 4th (2 were mixs - 2 FB)

the current is half sausage dog half JRT

only he doesn't know he's half sausage

loves possums - went after a coon twice his size - I think he would have killed it but it would have been rough on him

he's a little shy of 3 months old

Can jump of course but is proving to be far more relaxed than a full JRT - still thinks the GSD is his chew toy

We had one JRT,Bobby,who would take off at the sound of folks partying. Folks partying=food. Smart dog he was.

Woody,a good friend,46 states,pissed on a nose wheel of a CRJ,1993-2006.

And now I have Scooter,a rescue,killer of booda ropes and nylabones.So far the Kong has resisted his efforts to be destroyed.

I knew a lady whose JRs would grab on to the end of one of those pull toys thats like two triangles of rubber joined together and you could literally swing them around in the air above your head without them letting go....

That said, I think it might take a pack of JRTs to kill a full grown man, if even then..

If you could not fend off a JRT attack with anymore than your hands and feet you can turn in your man card.

For the record I have 2 JRT, yes they are vicious little shits but I am a 225lb man and they weigh 20lbs. I think I can handle a small pack of the bastards and I have no kung-fu mall ninja skills like you guys.

Seriously,a JRT owner has to become the "Alpha",otherwise,that JRT will walk all over him/her. Very possessive dogs too,of both property and owner,that is what happened to that baby.

About a dozen stitches but the dog was fine.
Her bowel wasn't torn up it had just fallen out of the wound.

The funny thing was, I was out in my yard when it happened but the two dogs always made such a racket that I just said "Hi" to him and went back to my gardening.
He would only play fetch with them one at a time as they would just fight over the ball.
It looked like a cartoon dog fight complete with a little cloud of dust.

I saw the dog a couple of days later and thought maybe she had just gotten spayed because she had that kind of dressing on.
That's when he told me what happened.
He was out on his deck with a claw hammer looking for other popped nails.

I have a female. Sweetest thing ever unless you are a small furry creature.

We had a cat once, she was always stalking it but never went after it unless the cat scratched her.

Tore a rabbit clean in half. It looked like someone took a ninja sword and cut the thing in half, I dont know how she did it that clean.

We also have 2 ferrets for the time being, she wants them bad but we keep on her not to kill. She just s stalks them.

To the OP, my JRT LOVES kids and especially babies. It is almost as if she mothers them and is protective of them. Just gives a harmless growl when someone goes near it.

They do have an obsessive behavior. I shine the laser on the ground and she will not stop till I put it away, then follows me around for an hour bugging me for it.

My in-laws had a JRT and a cat- grew up together. One day the cat got trapped in the garage and was making noises. JRT was outside the garage. In-laws came back from the store and opened the garage. The JRT went after his "best friend". My FIL said he kicked the dog three times as hard as he could, bouncing her off the wall of the garage, and she just kept coming back after the cat. Cat ended up having to have its back leg amputated.

They also called her "the little general" due to her bossing other dogs around.

I personally saw her tear up the neck of a GSD that had wandered into their front yard.

And now we have one. They really are everything described above. Kinda like a 15lb. pit bull.

And don't get me started on the laser pointers.
