I am considering getting a jack russel puppy - quite young - 8 weeks ish?

Most days of the week, there is no one at home from 9ish to 4 ish, would it be okay to leave him/her in a dog crate? Obviously only while he/she is young.

no actually, at that age they can only handle a few hours at a time. the dog would hate the crate (and start to have anxiety while in it, possibly causing it to scream bloody murder all day and annoy the neighbors) because it would be forced to mess itself in their constantly. that would then help to create potty training issues for you. Also a puppy that has a crash course in crating is likely to become a chewer because it will have extra energy when let out.

Jacks are EXCEEDINGLY HYPER. they require a lot of supervision and love to test the boundaries that you establish for them. It would be much easier to raise a different breed with your schedule. also consider looking for a dog that has a head start on crate training.

Please try rescue adoption.

All About Jack Russell Terriers?

I want to get a smooth coated Jack Russell Terrier for an outside dog in Maryland. It’s suburban area. I was wondering if I could do this. Also my mom is kind of allergic and I was wanting to know if it has a lot of allergy problems or if they are close to hypoallergenic. Also I have heard they are very energetic. I would like a dog that is a dog that I can run with but not that bites 6 year olds.
Are they good with strangers? Are they good in same gender pairs and/or different gender pairs. Do they need obedience classes? Will they wreck my house if they were to live inside? Which are usually the best, male or female. Please answer as many of these questions that you can and please put in any more information that you know that could help me.

Jack Russell Terriers aren’t hypoallergenic. The majority of Jrts will not tolerate a child pulling on their tails, ears, etc. The question is not “Is the dog good with children?” The question is “Is the child good with dogs?”

They can be very territorial.. but very friendly. The stranger acceptance will depend more on the individual Jrt. They are not usually good with same gender pairs. If you get more than 2, I’d suggest a male and female. Of course, you shouldn’t breed them unless they fit the standard, and etc. etc. etc. So, the best thing to do is get the male neutered if he isn’t quality or you don’t plan on breeding.

Some females get along with each other.. some males get along with each other. Especially if one of the two are neutered or spayed.

The obedience class question is entirely up to your level of training ability. If you aren’t very good at training dogs, or don’t have the time.. yes, maybe you should take the dog to a class.

They could possibly wreck your house. If a Jrt is bored, it will find something to do.. I have one that wrecks our house if left alone too long.. thusfore, she now stays in a crate while we’re out.

There really isn’t a best gender. However, if you plan on getting involved with the JRTCA and showing and breeding.. If your thinking about breeding, its easiest to start out with a bitch. You can easily find a nice stud dog for your bitch, but its harder to find someone that wants to use your stud dog. But, please don’t breed unless your involved with a club (JRTCA) know the standard and breed very well, your dog is health tested, registered, quality conformated, and preferably proven.

–look at sources–

Weaning Jack Russell Pups?

I have a new litter under 3 days old and i have done a lot of Research into weaning i just would like for somebody to confirm i am right before i start.
Start Weaning at 3 weeks old with a good quality puppy food soaked in boiled water, feed pups separate to ensure they all get the right amount for there weight, feed pups 4 to 5 times a day. Start worming at 3 weeks and every 2 weeks after that.
Slowly week by week reduce the amount of fluid in mix but ensure plenty of fresh water is always available.
As you can tell 1st time at this but hope i done enough Research not to be judged and any other helpful advice would be gratefully received
Ta Caz

Well you have a pretty good plan but I never started to supplement their nursing until 4 weeks old and I always allowed mom to still nurse the pups.
What do you mean by separate the pups?? They should all be fed together but with out mom there. If you have more than 4 pups then make 2 shallow bowls of the puppy mush. I used water bottles so the pups can have fresh water when ever they wanted it. It's alot neater too and there is no way a pup can accidentally drown in the water dish too. It has happened!
Worming schedule is ok.
You have the reduced water in the food ok but just make sure you increase the food amounts for their growing needs ok.

Sounds like you did a good job!

Best rehoming solution for this rescue?

Jack is an 8 month old Blue Heeler who was about to be shot because he's injured. I brought him to the vet this morning and his prognosis is good. I spoke with a rescue for cattle dogs who will train him and find a farm or ranch where he will work. Also, a friend's mother owned a dog like this for years and lost him about 6 months ago. She is ready to adopt again and would give him a great, pampered life. With these 2 options which would you think is the best for Jack? According to the vet, once his injuries have healed he should have no disabilities or limitations.

Sign him up for rescue - and have your friend's mother apply to them.

That way, the dog will have the insurance of being a rescue dog, whether she adopts him, or another one, and if things don't work out for him wherever he goes, he will end up back with that rescue - safe. They all have give-back clauses that say the dog must be returned to the rescue, and that will stand him in good stead later on…

Good for you for saving this dog's life - you're a dog angel!
