This is my 'jack russel' Oz, now i'm not like a dog person but i no that he's not a Jack Russel. Any suggestions on what he could be would be greatly appreciated

This is him around 3 months ago he's alot hairyer than that now, but i dnt have a more recent pic!
 
He looks almost like a yorkshire terrier head on a jack russel body!
HOWEVER!
Jack russel is NOT a pedigree breed, it a cross between a parson russel terrier, and something else, so it could be crossed with a yorki somewhere down the line, and has had this effect on yours! or a cairn or anything!
But still very cute though!

The short legged JRT was around before the Parson Russell, it's one of the reasons the Parson Russell club dropped the "Jack" from their name, they didn't want associating with the traditional Jack Russell. Which varies so much because it is a working terrier and bred for traits not looks.

He's cute whatever he is

its been an ongoing debate as to what he is for a while now!!

I dnt hav a more recent pic but imagine those scruffy little dogs with sad faces on the adverts, he would make a good one of those!! (purely on looks not well being, may i add!
