They are great hunters to kill mole/vole something that ruins your yard.
diehardbiker65 said:Each breed is different, Most terrier is territorial animals, meaning they don't like any other animals around his or her "Home". When you do research, and check to see wheather this breed is territorial or not, then you will know.
Jack Russell Terrier is DEFINETLY territorial. They are breeded for hunters! So, expect them to chase animals all the time. The nice thing about JRT is that JRT is very LOYAL to his or her master! Can't stay away from master for more than 4 hous or will go nuts. JRT will always alert his or her master of any changes in surrounding like break ins. JRT is average guard dog.

I used to have a Jack Russell, her name was Koko, she lived up to be 17 yrs. Yes, JRT is a wild dog but it's all worth it!
catlover_Amy81 said:lmao, dhb, my neighbor told me that his dog ( JRT ) had a lot of digging which is tried to escape the yard and tried to get into my yard with my dogs. Also, he told me that his dog does kill small animals and he said he brought some dead mice, birds, other small animals into the house. Anyway, I remember last 2 years ago, Spike killed a wild rabbit in my backyard! I remember that time in early morning when the dogs wanted to go outside for bathroom then I noticed something in Spike's mouth in distance in backyard, I was wondered what's that is. I called them to come in, Spike approached at the door then he dropped the dead rabbit on the porch's floor next to the door! I was freaked then I ran upstairs to wake up my father to tell him what happened. My father was half-awaked and was like, "huh"? "what"? lol I told him to come downstair now and take a look outside! lol
