short legged jrts

[jcm 2,327]

Has anyone got any that work ? Pictures.

What work do you do with them and how do they compare to the taller jrts, would a jrt of about 10 inches tall be any good underground, bushing, ratting etc

[johnrussell84 2,832]

Nope better off as a lap dog, there's big bad things underground u know

[jcm 2,327]

What about bushing ratting etc ?

My mother is getting one in a few weeks for a pet so if theres one in the house may aswell make some use out of it ie mootching with my lurcher, ferreting ratting etc

There very good terriers! Way better than big patterdales in my oppinion! I have two at the moment but havent got any pics.. If you can get a strong one theres nothing better.. Thats jst my personal oppinion before anyone starts gettin tick!

My Dad had a his own line of these russells back in the 's and early 90's, not lookers at all but they were excellent workers to ground (bayers mainly) and general bushing and not at all yappy/ nutter like many you see about nowadays. Shame he lost his last bitch to ground at 11 (retired at this point, but in the wrong place at the wrong time) and her daughter we kept back got hit by a car, great little dogs they were, small but very stocky powerful little dogs.

Real good little workers a matter of opinion never going to be to hard tho in general.

it all depends on the dog a small jrt or any terrier can be a handy tool and as for hard they can be as hard as you want them to be great bushing ratting ferreting and digging dogs
