Have you seen the height of the modern gangly I.T,......and any hunting traits are nonexistent compared to a decent Russel type ,..just my opinion ,why risk tainting a good ratting line with a defunct breed

what  do think of a parson jack Russel ?  i seen a cracker last  year  not sure of it size , but looked nice racy build , strong and agile  small dog. the owner had him on lead, as once loose would piss off . now dont know if that bad training , or type of dog it is ?. now ive got  little woody  a jack x Chihuahua thing , was rescue   on streets  for couple weeks, my son had for near 2 years , now ive got him for 5 years now  vet think about 15, i think she right he gone real old and thin , eats well but dont put weight on, i think it age thing as well. but going back to when when was younger, he was stubborn twat   think parsons  be quite a handful type dog as well.?

I know they ain't suitable for true terrier work but any one out there use em bushing and ratting? 

A friend  had one about  10 years  back,good enough  dog for bushing  but a cnt  for starting  fights  with  other dogs. I'd say they're  all show bred
