Questions & Answers

Questions about Jack Russell Terrier puppies for sale in California? We have answers.

Are there specific kinds of Jack Russell Terriers for sale in California?

Yes. They're not always so easily distinguishable, as most California Jack Russell Terriers for sale share similar coloring -- white with tan or black markings. But coats differ. Pups with Smooth coats have very little trace hair, those with Broken coats have some trace hair, while Rough coats are easier to spot with longer hair.

What are the origins of these Jack Russell Terriers for sale in California?

For that answer, we travel far from the Golden State! Any Jack Russell Terrier for sale California breeders offer today owes its heritage to the British Reverend John Russell (There really was a "Jack Russell!"). Known as “The Sporting Parson," Reverend Russell is credited with creating the breed for fox hunts in 19th-century England.

Are these Jack Russell Terrier puppies in California considered "designer dogs?"

No. Their size and pedigrees may make some think so, but they're purebreds. A designer dog, or hybrid, is a mix of two purebreds. So if you stir up a little romance between a Jack Russell and a Poodle you get a Jack-A-Poo. Introduce a Jack Russell to a Cocker Spaniel and you'll have a Cocker Jack. And on and on and on!

Will one of these California Jack Russell Terrier puppies for sale be happy in my apartment?

Maybe. As the top Jack Russell Terrier breeders in California can tell you, while their small size lends them well to apartments, their high energy makes them best suited for larger homes. They love backyards (and digging them up!). And they can be barkers. So apartment life will require lots of time outdoors.

Can you tell me how Uptown Puppies works?

Just search the site, perhaps with a focus on Jack Russell Terrier puppies for sale California breeders and businesses feature. You can search beyond California with our coast-to-coast networks. Pick a pup. Chat with the breeder. With your questions answered you can talk about transportation and soon that Jack Russell will be yours!

Do Jack Russells make good family pets?

Yes. With some conditions. Any of the Jack Russell Terriers for sale California breeders and companies offer will likely love a little roughhouse fun. They're perfect for older children but will need supervision around toddlers. And if you've got a garden, your Jack Russell will dig it up! But in general Jack Russells love family life.

Will that California Jack Russell Terrier for sale be easy to train?

It'll be highly trainable, due to its high intelligence. Easy? Not so much. You'll need some patience as these strong-willed pups can be stubborn and that often works against their ability to learn quickly. The top Jack Russell Terrier breeders California has recommend short training sessions with positive reinforcement.

How can I be sure that my Jack Russell will be healthy?

Any California Jack Russell Terrier breeders and businesses feature on our site can receive "nose-to-tail" health checks. This means a full examination of everything from eyes, ears, and mouths to respiratory and cardiovascular systems and more. We make it our business to ensure that you get a healthy pup!

What is a backyard breeder?

A backyard breeder is an amateur, some with good intentions and some with bad, who breeds dogs in substandard conditions without the needed expertise. This leads to overpopulation and canine health problems. Rest assured that no Jack Russell Terrier California breeders and businesses offer through us comes from a backyard breeder.

Couldn't I just go to a shelter for a Jack Russell?

You could. And, as true dog lovers, we don't advise against reputable shelters. Just be aware that any Jack Russell Terrier puppies California shelters have, if they have them, won't come with the all-important health and history information we provide. We offer full transparency with the country's top professionals and services that shelters just can't match.
