JRTs themselves are very smart and energetic dogs. They are pretty hyper, and we kinda gave up on training them (though they do know what we expect of them and when we are happy/mad towards them), though if you have enough patience, it is doable.barneygumble said:
If you live in an apartment or do not have a large yard, I would not suggest them. Sometimes, if they do not have anything to do or anywhere to let out there energy, they will let it out onto your furniture. Trust me, my two dogs did it too our furniture...
On the whole, I love both of my JRTs and would never give them up for the world. Could answer any questions that you have about them, if you do...

It's a purebred Cocker Spaniel in Golden Roan colour, he was very smart, except for the fact that he loved catching clods of dirt i threw at him, he would do that all day

I only have small yard 15mx20m but is has almost nothing in it, so i guess a dog would get fairly bored, however there would always be somebody there and i would walk him twice a day, would that be enough to keep him occupied or not
That would seemingly be enough to keep the dog occupied, especially if someone is always home. That is about the size of our yard, maybe 5m or so smaller lengthwise, but about the same nevertheless. I would really suggest searching the internet for all the material you can. You could never be too prepared...barneygumble said:
Oh, and unless you intend on breeding it, I would get it spayed or neutered. I don't know how a JRT acts when it is in heat (our dogs were fixed) but I can only imagine...
biohazard_6969 said:here are pics of mine, the one with the bone is mika. she's just a pup. about 4 months old in that pic, 8 months now
the other one is clover she's 8 years in august
they fight soooooooooo much because of the age diff and mika has become the dominant one which is kinda sad for clover
hey, cool dogs, are they vizlas(sp?)?
Apple //e said:yeah, its a weimaraner. good dogs.
not like my sister in laws´rat dog
and its a he, his testicles never dropped down so i can never have his pups
i don't like rat dogs merely becasue i can't see them and am afraid of stepping on them, they also have mean tempers, probably becasue they are so small and possibly scared

Thanks.wdlove said:Those are adorable pictures of Tobey. Nice job eazyc10.
He had a tumor on his paw and had surgery to take it out. Unfortunately the e-collar proved to be no match with the dog. He broke it a couple days after that pic. But he's fine now!
