Footnote: About the Jack Russell Breed
The Jack Russell, also known as the Jack Russell Terrier, Parson Russell Terrier, or “Jackie” in South Africa, is a small, energetic breed weighing approximately 5-8 kg and standing 25-38 cm tall at the shoulder. Renowned for their intelligence, courage, and lively nature, these dogs are popular across South Africa, from Gauteng to the Western Cape. Their compact size suits urban and rural homes, provided they get 30-60 minutes of daily exercise. With proper care, Jack Russells can live 12-16 years, making them a long-term companion for active owners.
