    I don't own a JRT or IG... however in the pics for sure I see a lot of JRT, but I could also see the IG part in her. I don't think 12.5 lbs is all that much for a JRT or a IG.

    The vet clinic I used to work at most recently we had several IG's that came in to board on a regular basis. We had this one IG, Cody, who was there all the time.... but he was 20-21lbs!! He was actually FAT!! The ONLY fat Greyhound (Italian) I have EVER seen.... lol
    If you're gonna breed Collies, don't you forget to breed in the brains and common sense. Without that you won't have a Collie, you'll have just another dog.



    I've Been BOO'd!!

    I see JRT. Not seeing much sighthound. Some BYB's have what are techincally Jack Russells and Parson Russells interbreeding. The puppies, obviously, aren't going to breed true to either breed.

    My latest resuce effort was a BYB selling "purebred Jack Russells". We took a mother and two pups. The mother was a broken coat, solid white Jack Russell. One of the puppies looked like her at first, but since has grown to probably twice the size of a large JRT, and shows some suspiciously lab-like features. But, by gosh, she's got those papers! The other puppy looks like, well, not sure ... a very small JRT, but sometimes I see some toy fox terrier in her. This charming lady also had a couple of Parson Russells running around, and several dogs which could only kindly be called "terrier mixes". I'm am quite sure she had no earthly idea which male fathered any of her litters.
