bobcullen79 1,495 Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Ive got a 10" JR bitch. unbelievably fast, awsome nose, great marking rats and rabbits . Just a prick round other dogs and can be yappy. Its like two different dogs, indoors and out. No where near the strenth, stamina and jaw strenth of my black bitch though. 1 Quote Link to post

jakk 6 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 I have two short legged JRT, One from the off showed amazing talent on rats he has accounted for hundreds and has only recieved one bite however the other JRT (litter brother) has never even shown a interested (this could be in part down to the fact that the first was encouraged were as the second wasn't really shown a rat until much later on) they have great temperements and can keep going all day. I've been out with a lot of dogs but if you want a dog purely for rats then I'd look no further. I'd love a pup from my JRT so if anyone has a bitch they are looking to line let me know on; Jakktennant@hotmail.co.uk we are based in south wingfield, derbyshire Quote Link to post
