Jack Russell Terrier
Jack Russell Terriers (13-17 pounds) are bold, energetic, and intelligent, ideal for active owners. They’re kid-friendly with supervision but may nip if provoked. High exercise (1-2 hours daily, agility or fetch) is crucial; their short coat needs minimal brushing.
Feed 0.5-1 cup daily of Merrick Classic Small Breed Recipe, with 28% protein for their vigor. Small meals prevent obesity. Suited for both indoor and outdoor living with secure fencing, they’re not for apartments or sedentary owners.
Training curbs barking. Perfect for owners seeking a spirited, compact dog, Jack Russells thrive with challenges, not for low-energy or untrained homes.
