You got it! I’m not a psychopath (at least, my psychiatrist says I’m not *quite* there yet :-) ), but listening to a Jack Russell terrier barking in the distance will get me to devising clever but cruel forms of animal torture in my head...

I was part of the horse crowd in my younger days, and it seemed the horse people all had JR’s.....I came to the conclusion they are dogs with a severe case of ADHD and needed psycho therapy .....it also did not help that cute dog, Eddie on Frazier caused people to adopt those dogs.....fast forward to my current life, 3 weeks ago today we adopted a dog from a no kill shelter and he is clearly a JR mix....when I saw him he captured my heart but my head was saying “are you nuts?”.....as it turns he is a great dog and the terrier bark gene is missing.....

JR’s can be great dogs but they need the right owners that provide a stimulating environment for them or those dogs will find their own “fun”

I love jack Russels! We have had 10 of them in the last 15 years, about half were rescues. They aren't all hyper, the rough coated Jacks have a calmer nature. We have 3 now and they are great watch dogs, no one sneaks up on us.

LOL! A friend of mine had 2 of them. The female was okay, the male was the most insane dog I have ever seen in my life. He tried everything. Obedience classes, neutering, shock collars, the dogs was just crazy. He bit or tried to bite everyone, he was so hyper he bounced off walls. He finally got rid of him.
