History

The Parson Russell Terrier it is a small to medium sized terrier. It's a hunting dog.

Although this breed of dog is very young in modern dog breeding, the Parson Russell Terrier is very close to the old and classic type of a terrier in character and appearance. Terriers form a large group within dogs. Its name is derived from the Latin «Terra» for the earth. So they were dogs for work on the land. The first evidence is given by the ancient Romans. Already in the Middle Ages terriers are described in detail. His homeland is in the British Isles. Terriers existed throughout the country. In the stables they kept small vermin at bay. Even the big rats were not a problem for them. The hens, pigeons and rabbits protected them from martens and foxes. To keep chasing foxes, the terriers were sent to the trench.

The Parson Russell Terrier of today are made exactly for this purpose. They should and could get the fox out of the hole. At the same time, they had to run with the fox hunts in the pack, that is to say, they had to be able to follow the gallop of the hunt. All of these tasks require enthusiastic commitment, special courage, independent thinking and the so-called sharpness of predators.

The Parson Russell Terrier turned into a versatile hunting dog, it's not only suitable for underground work. In the 19th century the English shepherd Jack Russell he was a successful hunter, rider and above all breeder of Fox Terriers. In his long life as a breeder he greatly increased the performance of the Fox Terrier. They were now fit for all individual hunting tasks, they could work in the pack and in the den at the same time.

In Australia, only with the help of their dogs could a plague of foxes be contained. To thank this, these dogs were finally named after their breeder, the Parson «Jack Russell» Terrier. They were and are physically and mentally raised for work, no show dogs. So breeders and lovers of this terrier for a long time refused to join the system of modern pedigree dog breeding., because they did not want to see dogs evaluated primarily on their appearance and feared the negative consequences of the show business on the fitness and health of dogs. This has done this breed of dog very well..

Seriously raised, these are dogs that were largely spared from hereditary diseases and extremes in breeding. He "Jack Russell Terrier» had a wide range of sizes from the beginning, rather short-legged and rather tall. Since performance was decisive, such refinements had no role. Now two breeds of dog have been made from the «Jack Russell Terrier» and the two lines have separated in breeding. The little one is still called Jack Russell Terrier, It has a height at the withers of up to 30 cm and is provided a little longer. The Parson it is a little taller and with more legs and in its rather square shape. Parish is another word for "pastor" in English.. So two breeds of dog are named after one person, el pastor Jack Russell. Both dogs are a credit to the Shepherd. In 2001 the new race Parson Russell Terrier was officially recognized.

Its color It can be entirely white or predominantly white with brown spots, lemon or black or any combination of these colors, preferably stains should be limited to the head or the birth of the tail.

It measures to the cross between 33 and 36 cm., their weight approximate is of 8 to 10 kilos to be slightly larger in proportions that the version of the Jack Russell Terrier, although it should be noted that taller specimens exist as "Jack Russell" in some work clubs in the United Kingdom and the United States., due to what these clubs do not form part of the FCI and therefore, handle different to the recognized standard registers and accepted worldwide by the 84 member countries.

    Over the years, two types of Russel Terrier, a medium-sized variant, the Parson Russel Terrier, and another one of smaller size, the Jack Russel Terrier described here. The small-sized variant found its followers mainly in Australia, who used it mostly for hunting in rabbit holes. Due to crossbreeding with other breeds and exclusive breeding for hunting purposes, recognition as an independent race came relatively late.

The dog's eyes are almond shaped and are normally surrounded by black eyelid edges.
