Jack Russells

[EDean 0]

Do they make good workers? Are they better crossed with another breed? Please post pics of your dogs, especially any JRT crosses that are working well. Thanks!

MY OPINION NOT INTO CROSSING JRT WITH PATS AND BORDERS WITH PATS AND MIXING UP TYPES BUT THERE YA GO MAYBE LIGHTING A FUSE NOW LOL REGARDS DABBER

Totaly agree with Dabber, if it suites you then why x with something else. What a lot of people don't tend to get is a family or line of workers is just that, by crossing it to some other family or stain you are diluting it and ruining it. You will still get workers but with each mating after unless you fold it back in you are just driffting away from the type or line that suited you in the first place. Alli no disrespect mate but all you northeners are just "BIGOTS"....

 

Edited to say in the 27 years I've been digging I've personally only seen one russell i would own, so IF there is a tidy line of russells out there then keep em close and look after them and good luck.
