pomeranian, Chihuahua, jack russel?

i am getting a puppy for my daughter and i want to know what it looks like before their born, the mother is Chihuahua and pomeranian mix and the daddy is jack russel the lady said that the mother is a toy breed and as fluffy as can be can you be able to help find some puppies with these mixes all together the site will only give me pics of 2 mixes not all 3 please help this is for her christmas present its killing me not to know what they might look like i need more answers please. i only got 3 last time and only 1 had a picture

LOL… as a mutt, the dog will get genetic traits from all of the different breeds. You wont be able to predict what the pup will look like. I REALLY hope you arent paying too much for your mutt puppy!! Dont get me wrong, mixed breeds need love too, but they shouldnt be bred for money!! If you are paying more than the initial costs of the puppy (shots, puppy food, etc), RUN far far away from this BYB!!

Chihuahua/Jack russell mix good?

Hey, I am probably adopting a 12 week old jack russell/ chihuahua mix from the ASPCA i am wondering if they are good dogs for first time owners and also if they are more on the chihua side(yappy) or jack russell side..
also i need help naming her shes a tan chihuahua/jack russell but she looks more like a chihuahua
ahh i need more answers i deffinitely want to adopt a dog like a JRT because theyre really cute and also im not sure should i get male or female need more help!! i have until wensday afternoon to decide

I have a rescued Chi/JR!!!
She's my child!
14 yrs. old now, spoiled rotten too.

She has never, nor ever bite a person/child/etc., but she does happen to act a lot larger than she is and go after other dogs,.. small, large, in between sizes.
{Had a Pitt/Staff also and she kinda reminds me of her, with the "tendency" to bully}

Smart as a whip, and rules me, BUT she is yappy and does shed, although minimal,.. not like my Lab or Husky.
She's about 12 lbs. and also very attached to me,.. will not go for a walk with anyone but me,.. plants all 4's on ground,.. loves car-rides and just being anywhere I am or go.
Gets along lovely with my cats, birds and prior rodents.
It's just the canines that she seem to want to be anti-social to.
Could be that I got her from the dog pound yrs. ago and she was stuck in a cage with all larger dogs and had to fend for herself.

I think you will be enthralled with your pup. Lucky you!
And gd. luck.

Would a seven year old Chihuahua/jack russel be considered old and how long is their normal lifespan?

I was wondering because my Chihuahua/Russell is seven years of age.

Thanks so very much.

I really was curious about this.

From seeing many Chihuahuas, Jack Russells, and mixes of each, I would expect a lifespan from 12 to 15 years, possibly as long as 16 or 17 with proper care. I would consider a 7-year old young. With proper medical care throughout its life, dogs can live much longer than expected.

Does anyone know where I can find Jack Russell x Chihuahua's?

I live in the south of England

My cousin used to have one, btu she was born as the result of an accident. She was a great little dog.

Try looking in rescue centres. Phone dogs trust, RSPCA, things like that, or check gumtree and vivastreet, and newpaper classified ads, there may be some puppies advertised

Good Luck (and don't pay over the odds for a puppy, they are a crossbreed, regardless of how popular/desirable they may be)

Does she really look Chihuahua/Jack Russel?

Ok I have a dog who was said to be a chihuahua/ Jack Russell Mix but I have seen both types of these breed but i personally think she may be another type of breed or breeds. When standing she almost looks like minature greyhound

I’d actually point more towards a Chihuahua x Rat Terrier

Advice on Chihuahua/Jack Rusell mix.?

I am buying a chihuahua mix tomorrow(mother is a jack russell) and was wondering could anyone tell me how much exercise etc they require.
Because she is so small is it okay to have her as an indoor dog and then the occational walk? I live in Ireland and it is quite cold. She is also only 9 weeks old. Any other relevent information regarding this breed of dog would be greatly appriciated.

As your dog is still a puupy, it will not need as much exercise as it will do as an adult. Most of a puppies energy goes into growing rather then exercise. Also bare in mind that your puppy needs to have its first and second jabs and approx 10 days after that until it can go out without being at risk of catching anything from other dogs. As your puppies immune sytem will be very low until this period, its advisable to only exercise him in the house through play and to carry him whilst out doors.

Uusally a puupy will get all the exercise it needs up until 6 months through play, where it has had time to grow muscle strenth in their legs.

Remeber that a dog is not physically mature until about 3 years old, so it wont need such a vigourous execise routine as a puupy.

It will need walking at least once a day, and as this breed particually hates the cold invest in a coat during the winter months.

Until it is fully mature make sure it has enough physical activity, though small walks and play so it doesnt divert its energy into misbehaving. And focus on bonding and socialing the pup

Good luck with the new member of your family….

what is best a Chihuahua, jack, Russel ,or a papillion?

i want a small family dog but that it will obay mosly and defend me from strangers. and that its cute

Before you decide on any breed of dog, clearly determine the following:
1) How much time will you be able to spend with the dog? (Dogs co-exist with us because we become a replacement for their pack. If you don't want to spend time with the dog, but just want protection, get a good alarm system and go to handgun training.)
2) What characteristics make sense for your lifestyle. Each of those breeds is high energy, and often vocal. Will constant barking to "protect" you become an issue for you or your neighbors? These breeds are all reknowned for their independence. "Obey" may not be in their vocabulary. How about a smallish retriever cross, or similar "obedient" dog. Will you have time to take your dog to obediance school? Will you have time to socialize it? Both of these are VERY important. Do you have small children in your household? These small dogs are not always the best choice for households with young children.
3) Although "cuteness" is very appealing, why not select a dog for health and personality? Better yet, make a visit to your local ASPCA or animal shelter, let them know what you are interested in, and see what is available. Right now, the shelters are overflowing with adorable puppies and adult dogs and cats, all needing homes because folks fail to spay or neuter their pet.
4) When you get your dog, go DIRECTLY to the vet and have the animal checked out for health and temperment. Keep it current on its shots, and above all, SPAY OR NEUTER. The only reason to breed an animal is to improve the breed. Not to "let the children see life" (will you also allow your children to see death when 50% of the puppies are euthanized at the local shelter 'cuz there aren't enough homes for them?) And, when you acquire a dog, keep in mind that to that dog, you become it's family for life…not until it becomes inconvenient, or until you move, or until your household rearranges. Having one of those breeds is a lot like having a permanent 2-year-old in your home. Even laid back dogs act a lot like young children, with their demands and need for attention. Are you and your family up for the task?
If so, do your homework, and go find your new best friend at the local animal shelter. If they don't have your first choice dog when you visit, ask to be put into their "wish book", so that they'll call you when your special breed comes in.

Have fun, and good luck!

Size of a Chihuahua X Jack Russell?

I have just got a new puppy, her mum is a short legged jack russell and her dad is a miniature chihuahua. Does anyone know what size these roughly grow to.

She is adorable anyway but i was originally looking at getting a pedigree chihuahua, so I’m hoping that she wont get as big as a jack russell.

Sorry but since she is a mix you can never be sure as to how big she will get. I have had two chihuahua jack mixes one is the same as as a typical chihuahua and the other was the size of a jack . they can from the same parents and the same litter. either way neither one is a very big dog.

Is there a "designer" breed for chihuahua & jack russell terrier?

i met a family that has an adorable dog that has a chihuahua face, color and fur, with the cutest racing stripe down his back, with a jack russel body type. he is just the most energetic and friendly little guy! the family told me he was a designer breed.
