Jack-Rat Terrier Puppies for Sale Jack-Rat Terrier Jack Russell / Rat Terrier Hybrid The Jack-Rat Terrier is not a purebred dog. It is a cross between the Jack Russell and the Rat Terrier. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and know you can get any combination of any of the characteristics found in either breed. Not all of these designer hybrid dogs being bred are 50% purebred to 50% purebred. It is very common for breeders to breed multi-generation crosses.
"Diva was born and raised her first three months in a fenced in back yard with her mother, siblings, & 6 other small breed dogs. When I got her at three months she was very docile and timid. She wouldn't come to me or play and was very stand-offish. This is a picture of Diva at 9 months old. That picture was after I had Diva for 6 months with her living with me in an apartment environment. That is about the time that she became totally "MY" dog. She has definitely become a "Daddy's Dog". She rarely leaves my side and loves to go everywhere I go. She travels well, responds to my commands, loves the outdoors & chasing squirrels, loves strangers, loves big dogs, never makes a noise other than when someone knocks, & has become the love of my life."
"Hippie, the Jack-Rat Terrier, at 1.5 years old. He now has more freckles, and cute as ever. Even though he is a hyper dog, he will sit as still as a mouse on my lap when I am at the computer. He continues to get along with our cats and loves to lay in the sun with his girl, our beagle, Reve. He cuddles on the couch and actually watches TV with us. He will even bark at other dogs when they are on. We watch the Dog Whisper and Funny home videos of pets. These are his favorite shows. I continue to crate him at night and when not home, for he has a dangerous curiosity. This is definately the best dog I have ever had the privledge to love. He and Reve are truly a pair of sweeties. I love my companions!"
Hippy, the Jack-Rat Terrier at 10 weeks old. "This is the smartest puppy and he loves to be held with his head on your shoulder. Now almost 3 months old he loves to play with all 6 of our kids and other pets. (Cat- Smokey and Beagle- Reve) Beagle and Jack get along fabulously!" Hippy the Jack-Rat at 6 months
old. "He continues to be a joy and highly energetic. Trial and error
led to the discovery that thin rolled long rawhides are best suited for
his skinny little nose and jaw and he likes to hold it between his paws
and gnaw at an angle. Fenced in yard gives him ample play space and baby
gates keep him in safe in indoor play areas. If you are thinking of
owning this type of hybrid be prepared to supervise for many months, for
they are explorers and playful and may pick inappropriate toys. Small
stuffed animals without buttons or choking items are a favorite to toss
around in the air and catch. It is winter here and small, lean boned
dogs such as terriers, get cold easily. Warm indoor bedding and blankets
near warm areas are best suited for these little bundles of energy and
joy. Definitely a highly intelligent dog, have some small bite size
treats handy, and they will learn tricks easily with baby praise,
kisses, and a delightful morsel. So, if this is the dog for you, when
your baby first comes home, cuddle and play with them a lot, have
patience, give praise and they will continue to be affectionate for a
lifetime." _____________________________________

"This picture is of our ever-curious, spunky Caszie, a Jack-Rat Terrier! In the picture, she is approximately 2 years old. She is the smartest dog and is also quite neurotic! She is the only dog I have ever seen that attacks vacuums, chases light beams, tries to "get" windshield wipers, and chases animals on hunting shows! She knows upwards of 15 tricks, all of which were learned before she was 9 months old! Truly an amazing dog. Fiercely loyal, she was my pick at first, but then she took over my husband. I can't even get near him, or she'll try to get between us or, if she can't, she'll sulk off to the corner and sit there, looking sullen. She just cracks me up!!" _____________________________________
"Sparky is a Rat Terrier/Jack Russell shown here at 3 years old. Sparky's parents were registered purebreds. We got him when he was 6 months old. He has the JR attitude and is the pack leader among the two of the dogs. (We have a Cojack named Toby.) He is full grown and weighs about 11 pounds. Sparky is incredibility smart. Watching TV is his most favorite thing to do. On Sunday mornings he will wake us with kisses and then run to the end of the bed and look directly at the TV. Once we turn the TV on, he nestles himself into the covers and will watch TV all morning! Sparky is territorial and it took some time for him to adapt when we brought Toby home to him. Now that it's been a couple of years, him and Toby are soul mates and could never be separated."
