I enjoyed this book plus the timing of the supplier shipping it out next day air allowed me to know just what our family was getting into the following day when we went out to the breeder's farm to pick out Jillian. What a companion dog! I sat up until 12:30 PM and was able to easily scan the relevant, well written issues any perspective JRT owner should know about. I have owned three other breeds and everything MS. Morningstar shares and teaches in this concise text was on the money. I will, of course, read the later chapeters more thoroughly as Jillie matures and grows from her current 5.3 pounds. I think that this is a great reference text which should be easy to resell back to the supplier or to a used book store if the decision not to purchase a JRT is made. It is an excellent "check out the dog breed" book.

This bood convinced me that although I love the Jack Russell Terrier, it would not be an appropriate pet for my household. Perhaps if I were a single person, living alone, but this dog requires a house hold with discipline individuals. I would recommend any prospective owner of the Jack Russell to look beyond the cute face and read about the quirks of this dog before bringing one into the home.

This book is very informative and helpful in deciding whether or not a Jack Russell is the right dog for your family and, a good guide in beginning the training of your new puppy.

Very pleased with "Living with a Jack Russell Terrier! This book covers what I needed to know about Jack Russell Terriers without being an overwhelming book. I was pleased to see that it also covered training for Agility and other special areas of interest beyond regular obedience!
