The Jack Russell Terrier was previously famous for its working qualities as a burrowing dog, but few modern breeders systematically develop the hunting instincts inherent in the genes of these playful babies. In the twentieth century, they turned into loyal and funny companions, real favorites of families who are used to spending their leisure time actively.
John Russell was a priest from Devon, England. He loved a good foxhunt and was always on the lookout for the perfect terrier to serve as his hunting companion.
In 1819, he found just what he was looking for when he met his milkman’s dog, a British White Terrier named Trump.
The spunky pup became the matriarch for the breed Russell went on to create.
