Answer 1

I have had friends with adult Jacks who had disastrous problems when trying to get a second. They have a high prey drive as a Terrier breed and are often not good with other dogs. You say your girl has not had much dog socialization, so be very cautious of getting another puppy. You will need to introduce them slowly and be around to keep the peace at all times.

A year old is too young to have your b1tch whelp. The best source of information is a Jack Russel breeder, maybe the breeder of your dog. They will give you all the ins and outs of breeding and all the work that goes into it. If you just want a second pet dog as a friend for your girl, that's great, but you will need to learn a great deal if you wish to breed, you will need more then a year or two of learning, planning and showing your dog to even think of planning a mating. Talk to Russel breeders before you even think of mating your dog. She may not even be a good choice for breeding at all. I say get this girl spayed, then deiced if you want another pet for you and a friend for her. You can then take all the time you need to learn about dog breeding, find a mentor who breeds Jacks and then make up your mind to breed or not.

Answer 2

She's too young to breed right now.. I have a "JACK" Russell and she had two litters and was a great mother to the pups and got along great with her mate.. Maggie is probably the smartest dog that I have ever had. She is very laid back which is not the norm for "Jack" Russells. Maybe the breeding, she is AKC instead of JRKC registered. Suggest that you wait at least a year for her to mature more before breeding. Enjoy her being a puppy for a while.. good luck

Answer 3

I would not breed her until her second heat cycle. I have two Jack Russell males and five females. All of my Russells get along great. She will do fine with puppies. Nature kicks in and takes care of business. The reason I said to wait until her second cycle as it will give her time to mature. Her body is not finished growing. It would be best if she were about 1 1/2 years old before breeding her. She will be an adult raising pups. I have raised these wonderful dogs for over twenty years. They are the best.

Answer 4

Depends on your dogs personality really if she will get along with another dog, jack russells can be snappy but generally will learn to accept another dog. Don't try to breed her, she is too young and you obviously don't know what your doing, plus there are too many jack russells out there as it is they are not popular like they once were so you would have a tough time finding good homes for them or if your just in it for some quick cash, good luck selling them for any profit after you do their tails and shots. Male jack russells that are not fixed are pretty naughty as well, they will be very likely to mark pee all over you house.

Answer 5

Jack Russell love company....they are terriers. Be sure to introduce them away from home for the first time. Meet in the park so they can meet and play and the new dog is not invading her private space.

But really think about the puppy thing. His and her health benefit by being neutered and we certainly don't need more puppies in the world. And you have to put up with keeping them separated when she is in season and you don't want them to breed. Thousands of dogs killed each day because they are simply not enough homes. And of course those puppies need vet visits, shots and can get expensive if you have a large litter.

Answer 6

you seem to young to even be thinking about breeding your dog. And then to be asking when your pet is to young also.. And it is *jack* Read about breeding and all the troubles and expenses that come with it.. All the proper vet care for mom and all the complications. Then go to your local animal shelter and look at all the unwanted animals there, then ask yourself why you just don't get her fixed and let her be a pet, family member, best friend, and NOT a mother!!!!!!

Answer 7

Yes male and female jackrussells can get on!!
If your thinking about breeding her that great,but you you would have to find a male that would be best suited to her i.e same kind of build and know the temprement of both parents so you had a good litter!!
you say she is not even a tear old yet,well I would leave it another year or so,as she still hasnt fully developed yet!!
Good luck!!!

Answer 8

First of all, don't get a male just to create puppies that will not be sold and will end up in shelters or homes where they are not a good fit.

As for getting a buddy to play with, a male would be great companion for her, however, please get both dogs fixed and enjoy them as loving members of the household, and not puppy producers.

Answer 9

You mean Jack Russell?

Answer 10

She would get along with a boy but please don't breed your animals unless you are serious about breeding and have a purpose for doing so. There are too many homeless animals as it is. Get your dog a friend and have them both spayed or neutered.
