Cuerpo y estructura

Jack Russell Terrier is a small dog with companion background whose build should be read beside very high movement demand, high trainability, and a grooming load of 2/5.

The Jack Russell Terrier was shaped in Britain for energetic terrier work: quick decisions, courage, persistence, and a body small enough for earth work. That past is why modern training needs outlets for chase, search, digging, and impulse control rather than only lap-dog routines.
