A good cross for a short legged Jack Russell?

No she was bred by and bought from a responsible breeder and is a fine example of her breed that works, shows and is a much loved pet...your point is?! :confused:

o right, so you just PRESUME the home I offer is not up the standard of the one you offer?

I have 3 dogs, I guess you have 1/2 a dozen... alll rescues? all bred by reputable breeder? why should I not have the right to own and care for the dogs I love, just because this country is full of idiots that breed Staffies with rotties then chuck them on the street when they get too aggressive.

A lurcher is a crossbred, an Jack Russell IS a crossbred, a collie has various blood in it (I had several working collies all kept till old age, I have a farm, they had jobs to do)

The job of this bitch's offspring is to be my & my mothers companion.

Totally agree with this IF you HAVE to breed from her don't use a Daxie, my little cross is part Daxie and I have spent literally hundreds of pounds on her back at the vets. The JRT part of her says run and jump and twist round in the air playing, and then her back goes and she's on painkillers and anti-inflamatories for days.

yes I spoke to mum about using a Daxi and she said the same, sorry to hear yours is so, and a good warning to folk not to consider breeding such crosses.

Far from it, I made no comment at all on your home or your dogs or how much you care for them.
I have four...two bred by reputable pedigree breeders, one rescue, one working bred (also responsibly)
Yes JRs are are crossbreed...I'm still not really getting your point? What will you do if the bitch has 8 pups? Keep them all?

:rolleyes:

you could have chosen to answer that properly.... do you have a list of people wanting pups who can provide a good home?

Well I could of, but this post has clearly turned into a public lynching so I dont really see the point in giving any of you sensible answers. I havent been taken seriously so I dont see why I should take you so.

Nothing... There are so many smaller dogs around and a JR cross is not highly sought after.

yes I dont what to breed her with somone too small, JRs are hugely popular where I live, especially my girls type as she is solid coloured and a very diffrent colour too. Last year I took her to Nat Champs, and I she got so much attention, people liturally giving me their numbers! even had an enquiry via my Facebook from Italy!

Yes, sorry that was not nice of me, it jsut felt you are jumping on the band wagon a little. Huge amout of emotion going on in this post, which was supposed to be random little chat about my little dog. Next thing, everyones throwing shoes at me for even thinking such a thing.
 
A plummer terrier !! 100% if you must breed, depending on the size of your bitch, plus how many were in her litter when you got her, will depend on how many puppies you will get an average litter for a plummer is 3, but we have had up to 7.
Look on plummer terrier dot com and google plummer terriers, if you want a stud dog , but please get back to me if you decide to breed from her as there are some badly bred, but well promoted dogs out there .

JMI, why do you want to breed when there are so many unwanted dogs out there, and yes, there may be people wnting puppies at this time but you watch them they will atke a puppy but if their circumstances change , what happens then? remember although you may sell/give the puppies to people they are your responsibility as you brought them into the world.

Gosh I sound a real miserable old sod, not meant to, just think realism before breeding anything..
 
JRT is a small dog...so dont know why you are saying about breeding her with something too small..
I repeat..Nothing. They are ten a penny (and all dogs are 'special' in their owners eyes)
 
..................meant to add, you lot!! for goodness sake give the girl some advice rather then a lynching, I think we have been there before , me against the mob over some sheperds if I remember rightly, and eventually you all jumped in to help the people , dont persecute, educate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Stepping away from whether or not you should be breeding crosses, have you considered the fact that you may not get offspring with the virtues of their mum, even with pure breds. I kept a bitch pup from my very special bitch, and whilst I love her daughter dearly, she is the complete opposite in every way from her mother. I also have to agree with others, in an ideal world you would get just 2 pups, of the sex that you and your mum want, however sods law says you will have a huge litter, and the wrong sex. :(
 
There is no breed standard for JRT's.
I thought she was a lap dog? Are you now saying these are to be working bred terriers going to working homes?! :confused:

Wow, I have never heard of this breed, but just googled and wow they are LOVELY!

thansk for your support, yes I know about the trials and tribulations of rehoming, not an easy task that I dont doupt for one minute, and why I wont just randomly breed... and why I started looking for advice LOL that turned out to be!
 
As someone who is planning to breed from her JRT with a JRT - I'm afraid I agree with Cobgirlie and the others, I wouldn't be looking to cross her with anything. I don't know how to explain myself without sounding hypocritical so I'm leaving it at that.

ETA Plummer's are nice BUT are very headstrong working Terriers - I'd say more so than a JRT
 
FFS I give up with complete bloody morons and this flaming forum. Why ask for advice and not take it unless its the one post out of many that happens to suit you. Pointless and ridiculous.
