Jack Russell – South Australia

Hi there, I am looking for an adult Jack Russell companion dog to join my home. I live a quiet country lifestyle and have previously owned two lovely Jack Russells, who were wonderful companions until they sadly passed away from old age. Now at 73 years old, I would love to welcome another Jack Russell into my life. An adult dog would be ideal, as I enjoy the companionship, walks and company that this wonderful breed provides. My home offers a calm, caring environment with plenty of space, and the dog would be well loved and looked after. If anyone has an adult Jack Russell needing a good home, please feel free to get in touch. I would love to hear from you.

3 white and tan Jack Russel puppies. Two boys and one girl. Ready for new homes from the 2nd December when they will be 8 weeks old. (One boy and one girl are now sold. so only one boy left) Socialised they love cuddles, playing with their toys and wrestling their siblings. They are already getting their toilet training started at 4 weeks. Wormed every two weeks, they will be microchipped and vaccinated at 6 weeks. Our mum is Candy a broken coat JR. The Dad is Zac a smooth coat. We chose the pairing due to their chilled nature which is a good thing in Jack Russel world. One boy is the spitting image of his dad and very chilled. The other boy will be the largest and very playful and is now going to a new home. One girl is taken and the smallest white face girl is independent and rules over her brothers. She has spunk. All love cuddles and are very good at entertaining themselves. They are too young to know how their coats will be but one boy is looking broken coat and one smooth at this point. It will be a few weeks before you can really see that for sure.

Jack Russell – Dalyston

Nine week old Jack Russell Terrier Puppies (X5) for Sale, that also come with over $400 of FREE Puppy Gifts each (Please see pictures). We have 1 female (1st picture) and 4 males for sale. The Mother of the puppies is full Jack Russell Terrier, and the Father of the puppies is 1/2 Jack Russell Terrier and 1/2 Fox Terrier. Making each puppy 3/4 Jack Russell Terrier, and 1/4 Fox Terrier. The puppies are currently nine (9) weeks old (they were born on April 8th, 2025), and they are ready to go to their new homes now. The puppies have all had their first vet check-up ✔️, are all microchipped, have all their their vaccinations, and have all been wormed. (Please see pictures of proof). They will all come with their own veterinarian book that has each of their individual microchip numbers in it, proof of this 1st vaccinations, and proof of 1st vet check-up. They were also wormed during their 1st check-up. The vet said that the puppies are all extremely healthy, are in perfect health, and have nothing wrong with any of them. We brought them to Meow and Friends Community Vet Clinic in Cranbourne West, Victoria for their 1st check-ups, microchips, 1st vaccinations, and to be wormed. So if you have any questions about anything regarding their vet check-ups please feel free to contact them. Each puppy also comes with over $400 of FREE things for your new puppy. I've made up large gift bags for each puppy that include: 1) At least 20 high quality free toys each, most of them were purchased directly from Pet Barn. (Note: Approximately 7 to 8 of the toys for the female puppy will be pink instead and/or will slightly vary from the toys in the male puppies gift baskets. The rest of the toys are the same exact toys in both the males and the female gift bags. And each puppy will get a warm heart beat puppy toy. (NOTE: Please see the picture showing the toys that come in each male gift bag). 2) One (1) high quality Dog Bed - "Charlie's Snooker Hooded Dog Bed". My two (2) dogs, and all of the puppies, absolutely love these dog beds. So I bought each puppy one to go home with. 3) One (1) Dog Blanket each. 4) One (1) Food Bowl and One (1) Water Bowl each. 5) One (1) puppy collar and one (1) matching leash each. (NOTE: The colour puppy collar that each puppy has on in their pictures, is the colour collar and matching lead that you will get). Literally all you should need to bring your new little family member home, is some food and some treats for them!! 🐶🥓🥰❤️ Jack Russell's are good with any ages from children right through to the elderly and/or for people with limited mobility. All they need is a decent sized and secured fenced in yard, and some toys, and they will get all of the exercise they need. They also love being cuddled and running around and playing with children. Infact they really love playing with everyone, regardless of age. Our puppies have been socialised by our young grandchildren, have been taken out to get used to new sounds and places, and live with and have been socialised by 5 young adults, and ourselves (Tim and Julie) who are close to 60 years old and who are both disabled and have mobility issues. We also have a number of workers who come to our house each week who all really loved giving them lots of love and cuddles too. We have also worked with each puppy to help them learn to trust and to not be afraid. And they have been provided with all sorts of toys of all sorts to keep them stimulated, playing, and happy. They have all been whelped and raised inside of our home, and have also had free access to the fenced in back yard. As a result all of our puppies have very good temperaments, and just love spending time and playing with anyone. These dogs are very social dogs and absolutely love cuddles, belly and ear scratches, and especially to spend as much time as possible with you (and your family) as possible, and love nothing more than to be close to you. They also do very well if they have another canine companion to play with, so we very much encourage that. They don't deal with especially cold or extreme heat very well, because they are small and only have a single coat of fur (unlike other breeds like German Shepards or Huskies that had triple coats of fur.) And since they have a lot of white fur on them it makes them more prone to skin cancer if they are exposed to the sun a lot. So planning that they are going to be an indoor dog a good part of the day is important. We offer a 100% lifetime guarentee that if you can not longer keep your new family member that we will always be willing to take them back free of charge, and will find them a suitable and new home for them. We absolutely do not want any of our puppies to ever end up in dog pounds or kill shelters of any type. 🐶🥰❤️

Jack Russell – Dalyston

We have 5 Jack Russel/Fox Terrier Puppies for sale. The puppies are 3/4 Jack Russell and 1/4 Fox Terrier, and we have 4 boys and 1 girl. The puppies were born on April 8th, 2025, and are just over 9 weeks old. All of the puppies have been vet checked, and the vet said that they are all very healthy puppies. Each puppy will also come with their vet check books that we received from the vet when we brought all of the puppies in for their vet check-ups, their 1st vaccinations, microchips, and to be wormed. In addition each puppy comes with at least 30 high quality puppy toys, a food and water bowl, a collar and lead, and a good quality bed and blanket to go to their new homes with. (NOTE: We are still waiting on the beds and blankets to arrive via post, which should hopefully be sometime late this week or very early next week). So all you need before you take your puppy home is some food and treats for your new family member. Jack Russell's are great for people of all ages. They absolutely adore families and children and love to run around and play with them. They live going on outings for people who live to bring their friend with them. They are also great for older people who have limited mobility but have a decent sized fenced in yard large enough for them to get their daily required exercise in. But most of all they just love attention, love, pats, and belly and ear scratches. The puppies have been socialised with children, teens, younger adults, middle aged adults, and older adults with limited mobility. They have also had access to plenty of toys for stimulation and learning.

This purebred takes its name from Reverend John “Jack” Russell, a passionate fox hunter who developed hunting dogs in the 1800s in England. His purpose was to create a working canine that would hunt with hounds, thus, the name “Jack Russell Terrier.”

When Russell passed away, the breed evolved and had longer legs than the original. The new breed became known as the “Parson Russell Terrier,” with “Parson” being another word for “reverend.”

Because of the variance in leg lengths, today, there are two separate breeds: Jack Russell Terrier and Parson Russell Terrier.

 

Key Characteristics Of Jack Russells

Are Jack Russells Family-Friendly?

Yes, they are. When properly socialised and trained, Jack Russell Terriers are one of the most loving and affectionate dogs. They are loyal to their humans and do well with babies and children.

It is important, however, to always supervise a child when they are interacting with their dog. Additionally, a kid should be taught and reminded how to approach and touch this breed.

Common Health Issues & Considerations

Jack Russells may suffer from:

Legg-Calve-Perthes disease

A disorder of the hip joint where the head of the femur bone degenerates, leading to pain and lameness.

Patellar luxation

A condition where the kneecap dislocates or moves out of its normal location within the knee joint.

Lens luxation

A condition where the lens of the eye becomes dislocated from its normal position, either falling forward into the anterior chamber or backward into the vitreous body.

Deafness

Glaucoma

Arthritis

Hypothyroidism

Nature / Temperament

Fearless, smart, stubborn, athletic, vocal and energetic

Suitable Environment

The Jack Russell Terrier thrives indoors. However, it is not suited for apartment living as it has an urge to explore. This breed is much better in a house with a large, fenced yard where it can have enough space to play and burn off some energy.

Bear in mind that this breed has the ability to dig, climb and jump, which is why an underground electronic fence will not do. When your dog is spending time in your yard, it is recommended that you supervise it or keep it on a leash.

Other Considerations

  1. The Jack Russell can be vocal, so it does not suit apartment life well. However, it is vigilant, making it a wonderful watchdog.
  2. Jack Russells are capable of jumping more than five feet high.
  3. While friendly towards humans, Jack Russells can be aggressive towards animals that resemble prey, unless properly socialised and trained.

How can I take good care of my Jack Russell?

Nutrition

It is recommended that Jack Russell Terrier puppies aged eight to 12 weeks old are fed three to four times a day. Raw, natural food or a premium dry kibble is advisable.

Be sure that meat from a named protein source is the main ingredient and that the food has minimal additives or chemicals.

For dogs six months and older, about two meals a day is sufficient. The suggested daily amount is 1.25 to 1.75 cups of high-quality dog food per day.

Avoid giving your dog human food and table scraps. Also, make sure to give them plenty of clean and fresh water.

Grooming

Smooth-coated Jack Russell Terriers only need to be brushed a few times each week and bathed with quality dog shampoo every four to six weeks. Meanwhile, rough-coated breeds need a little more brushing a week and should be stripped once or twice a year.

Exercise

This small dog has a high energy level and needs plenty of exercise to be happy and healthy. Active both indoors and outdoors, the Jack Russell Terrier requires 30 to 45 minutes of exercise daily.

A short walk around the block is not enough – this dog loves to run and jump!

You can play fetch with your dog, have it chase a ball, or take it hiking. Just be sure to always walk your pooch on a leash to prevent it from getting lost.

Training

Being an incredibly intelligent dog, the Jack Russell Terrier can be trained as early as when you bring it home. This is usually when it is around eight weeks old. Because of its independent nature, however, it can be quite challenging to train.

To make it respond positively to training, offer the right mix of mental and physical stimulation. Keep the sessions short and use positive reinforcement. Be firm and confident so that your dog will oblige. Finally, make training a routine as this breed does best with structure.

Be sure to consult an expert if you’d like to learn about the breed’s care and requirements.

Most Asked Jack Russell Questions

This small dog has almond-shaped eyes, a tapered muzzle and V-shaped ears. Its body is compact and muscular, and its tail is erect and straight.

Its coat is mostly white in colour with patches of brown, black, or tan on different parts of the face and body.

Regardless of its coat type, the Jack Russell tends to shed a lot all year round. The shedding can become worse during the spring and autumn seasons.

One way to greatly reduce the shedding is by brushing your dog’s coat regularly.

A Jack Russell typically costs between AUD $1,200 and $3,000. To ensure that you are getting healthy and happy dog, we recommended that you purchase from a registered breeder. If you’re looking for Jack Russell puppies for sale under $500, consider looking at ones that are up for adoption or being rehomed, which tend to fetch a lower price.
