Jack Russell is the first and foremost a working terrier. Originally bred to bolt fox from their homes during the hunts, which are used on numerous ground-dwelling quarry such as groundhog, badger, and red and gray fox.
The Jack Russel Terrier work is required to locate quarry in the earth, and then either bolt or hold it in place until you are dug. To accomplish this, the dog must bark and work the quarry continuously.
Due to the conservation of this working ability is of paramount importance to most registered breeders Jack Russell tend to be extremely intelligent, athletic, fearless, and vocal dogs.
It is not uncommon for these dogs to become moody or destructive if not properly stimulated and exercised as they have a tendency to bore easily and often create their own fun when left alone to entertain themselves.
