“Hold your dog in readiness before you start the hare.”

~Proverbs and Wisdom For Working Dogs

By nature, Jack Russell Terriers are working dogs–tough and sturdy. Originally bred to bolt foxes from their dens, The Jack Russell has also been, throughout history, used to hunt groundhogs and badgers. Fearless and relentless, Jack Russell Terriers have the reputation of being loyal and indefatigable working dogs.

In a U.S. Regional Trial of Working Terriers held in Norfolk, NE, hundreds of Jack Russell’s from across the country competed in timed-trials to determine which dogs were the best of the best. And while Jack Russell’s are marvelous companions, they are all business when it comes to competition.
