hmm i have a jack russel! His name is Spikey and its a wire haired one, so the coat is extremely messy. He's around 6 years after i gave him away, really good dog. The lifespan is like around 10 years. This is a very very intelligent and active dog. Don't rear unless you have plenty of space to let it run.

It is intelligent enough to open his cage. My cage is those with a LATCH thingy where my dog just puts it hand and puched upwards. The latch opens and he's free.

The other thing which facinates me when he is eating garden snails. I dont know why he did that. He took the garden snail and put it into its mouth, he seems to be unable to bite the shell open. Well from my view, he uses his body, and slams it ontop of the snail. THe shell broke and he ate the snail... woah, so smart. Wished i videoed the whole ordeal.
