The Jack Russell can display the hyper and aggressive temperament of a Parson Russell as well. This type of working terrier is recognized by the Jack Russell Terrier Club of America (JRTCA).

Er.. Sorry bout' I`m now pretty confused. I read from quite afew websites on PRTs & they said that JRTs are actually crossed breeds from the Russell Terrier & Fox Terrier.. So, JRTs are results of RT & Fox Terrier or PRT & RT or both mixes are JRTs also? hehe.. Sorry ar I know I`m asking sth totally aint linked to e topic/qn =X But I would love to know more & understand better about my dearest boy`s breed.. hehe.. (I`ve a smooth-coat PRT old puppy  )
PRTs aint e same family with JRTs right.. JRTs belong to e fox terrier family.. But ppl always think that PRTs = JRTs.. Sigh..
