- Hunt Terriers have also been referred to as Black and Tan Terriers, Red Terriers, and Solid Colored Jack Russell Terriers. In 1995, The Hunt Terrier Club of America was formed; however, at the beginning of 2008, they revised their charter to accept a much wider variety of.
The Hunt Terrier was developed in the British Isles as a working terrier. It’s history goes back to the 1600’s where this little terrier was a part of the terrier team used to help flush fox that the horses, hounds and huntsmen had chased underground or as vermin control around the family farm. The color of the Hunt Terrier was predominately solid and it has been known as the Old English Black and Tan Terrier, Irish Black and Tan Terrier, Black and Tan Jacks, Golden Jack Russell Terriers or simply Hunt Terrier. This being said, the usual colors of the Hunt Terrier range from a fawn to red or solid black to black with tan points. Most recently, a group has started calling this little terrier the Euro Russell and renamed The Hunt Terrier Club of America to The Euro Russell Club of America.
These dogs were originally bred by men who selected stock based on hunting abilities. In the field when riding to the hounds where the object was to chase the fox, the small terriers would be carried on horseback in pouches. If the hounds chased the fox underground, the terrier men would release the terriers to help flush the fox out so that the hunt could continue. Occasionally the solid colored terriers would be confused by the huntsmen as the fox. This brought about more selection to breed white into their terrier team to make it easier to distinguish the Hunt Terrier from the fox; leading to what is known in Europe and Australia as the Jack Russell Terrier, and in the U.S. as the Russell Terrier or the larger, longer legged Jack Russell and Parson Russell Terrier. This, coupled with the general decline in the demand for sporting terriers has caused the numbers of Hunt Terriers to decline and to be considered rare. Fortunately, good dogs continued to be bred by dedicated terrier enthusiasts. Unfortunately little documentation such as pedigrees or breed history was kept on these dogs. They are not recognized by a kennel club and did not enjoy the popularity some terriers saw in the 20th century. However, a few dogs remained on the farms of England and Ireland and started to be imported more frequently in the 1970’s. In the mid 1990’s a few American breed enthusiasts bred these dogs and crossed some of them with the Russell Terrier to increase their limited gene pool and this is still considered an acceptable cross today for the Hunt Terrier, although only the offspring that are predominately solid colored are considered as Hunt Terriers. Their dispositions are charming and full of fun, making them an excellent family dog today. Please visit our Facebook page to see if we have any puppies currently available.

Description
The Jack Russell Terrier is a very spirited, fearless, assertive, intelligent, and active breed. It is also athletic, sturdy, and tough. The Jack Russell Terrier is bred to hunt, dig, track, and roam.
The head is well balanced and in proportion to the body with moderate ear width. The eyes are almond shaped and dark in color. Their neck is muscular, of good length, and gradually widening at the shoulders. The Jack Russell’s coat can be smooth, rough, or broken coated (broken meaning it is a combination of both the smooth and rough coat with longer hair mixed in with the short) and comes in white with tan, black, or brown markings. Brindle, black, and tan coloring can occur but are rare. Discover more about our Jack Russell Terrier puppies for sale below!
The Jack Russell Terrier is not necessarily the best breed choice for an inexperienced or first-time dog owner; give them an inch and they’ll take a mile — they are wonderful, yet willful and determined to complete whatever is on their agenda. A fence is a must, and they are also able climbers and high jumpers, so supervise your Jack Russell Terrier.
Disposition
This breed is not for those who live a sedentary lifestyle. They are a loving and very loyal breed of dog, hopelessly devoted to their family but they require a lot of time and attention. They are best with older children who respect their boundaries because they do not tolerate teasing from kids. Be sure to socialize your Jack Russell puppy at an early age.
Exercise
Jack Russell terriers require exercise, and they’re wonderful with interactive toys and games for mental stimulation too. Jack Russell Terriers are super active dogs: it’s a high-energy breed and needs a lot of daily exercise or they can develop other behavior issues such as aggression or destruction.
