Jack Russell terriers "were not recognised by the Kennel Club until 1989. This official recognition offers Parson Jack Terrier owners and breeders much-needed protection for the breed and the opportunity to become involved in the wider world of dog shows both in Britain and overseas without prohibiting them from the shows and sport which have been available to the breed in the past. This book is the first to discuss and examine these new opportunities as well as the more traditional activities." Chapters include: Arrival of a breed; White Fox Terriers; A sporting parson; The genuine article; Campaign for recognition; Breed Standards, British and American; Caveat emptor; Care and maintenance; Breeding; Mating and pregnancy; Whelping and rearing; Showing; Judging; At work, then and now; Some, hopefully uncommon, ailments; Accidents will happen; Keeping it legal. Appendices include: Whelping table; PJRTC Submission to KC; Breed Standard.
