Jack Russell Time

I don't know what it is about Jack Russells, but whenever I pick up an old photograph of someone and their dog, it seems to include a Jack Russell terrier. Here are two I found today. It is nice to think that the owners cared enough to take their beloved pet to the photographer's studio. What, by the way, is your favourite breed?

    It's been a while since a Jack Russell brightened up the blogosphere... these are certainly vintage; one would almost surmise that there were no other breeds of dogs back then, that Jack Russells were the only choice...

    Thanks, Owen. Jack Russells rule OK

    It's a toss up between Tibetan Terriers and PBGV's. The former has the attitude of a Jack and the latter is just dippy but gorgeous!

    I'd say it's because Jack Russells are such good ratting dogs, people would have found them to be good house pets back then for sanitary reasons.
