Euro Russell Terrier For Sale
If you’re considering adopting a dog from the European continent, the Euro-Rossell Terrier may be a good choice. This versatile and active breed is highly trainable and can compete in several dog sports, including Barnhunting, Companion, Conformation, Coursing, Earthdog, hunting, obedience, and agility. However, you should be aware of some of their common problems and how to avoid them.
The Euro-Ross terrier is a lively, active working dog that was originally developed by England’s “Sporting Parson” for foxhunting. This lively breed typically stands ten to twelve inches tall at the shoulder, has almond-shaped eyes, and a keen, intelligent expression. All three coat types are white with black or tan markings. The Euro-Ross stands between 10 and 12 inches tall.
The European-Ross is a smaller version of the American Jack Russell, with an identical, smooth coat and shorter body. This terrier has an impressive pedigree – all of its ancestors are Australian – and weigh four to seven kilograms (11 to 15 pounds).
Another characteristic of this breed is its high vigilance, which is an excellent trait for family dogs.
Its high energy level and devotion to its owner make him a great jogging companion and can be a good playmate for older children, but can overwhelm younger children. When properly trained and socialized, a Euro Russell will be a joy to own. The Euro also enjoys flower posing.
The Jack Russell terrier shares a common ancestry with the Parson Russell terrier. Both of these dogs are high-energy dogs that are extremely intelligent and trainable. One of the most famous Jack Russell terriers ever appeared on TV was Moose and their son Enzo, who played Eddie on the television show, Frasier. This dog sparked more fan mail than any other dog in the show. Another popular character of this breed is Skip, who appeared in the 2000 movie My Dog Skip.
The Parson Russell Terrier is named after the Reverend John Russell, a celebrated British huntsman. Developed in the mid-18th century in the south of England, the Parson Russell was bred to hunt European red foxes and to hunt underground. In addition to being a great hunting dog, it was also used in working terriers. Arthur Heinemann founded the Parson Jack Russell Terrier Club, which later developed the first Jack Russell breed standard.
The UKC changed the breed name to the Jack Russell Terrier in 2009, bringing the breed into line with the world standard. In 2004, the AKC accepted the FCI standard for the Jack Russell and the American Russell Terrier Club standard. The American Kennel Club and the European Kennel Council recognized the breed in 2003. The Australian National Kennel Council recognized the breed in 1990. These two organizations have since become the standard for the European-Round Terrier.
While the coats of all three breeds are similar, the Euro-Round is slightly smaller than the Jack Russell.
Their coats are thick and coarse. Both breeds require good undercoats. Their dominant color is white, with white markings confined to the head and tailhead. They have an average-sized skull, which is flat and gradually narrows to the eyes. They have small button ears, which are very close to the head. The eyes are dark and almond-shaped. The Euro-Round is a popular breed for households and is an excellent choice for pets.
While both of these breeds have similar lifespans, they have their specific health problems. All three breeds are prone to eye problems, subaortic stenosis, and Von Willebrand disease. Regardless of the age of the puppy, pet owners should take care to vet the dog before bringing it home. Ensure that the dog is well-socialized and has lots of exercises to do.
