    Aww, the pictures aren't working! I'd love to see him!

    I have a <LARGE> Jack Russell. It's not too uncommon for (poorly bred) JRTs to be up to 15 inches tall. The tail could be another result of poor breeding.

    JRTs usually have docked tails so they have no idea what kind of tail is being bred. So I wouldn't rule a dog with a curly tail as not being a Jack. And then there are three types of coat, the rough, smooth and broken. It just depends on how long his hair actually is!

    Ah! There we go!

    He definitely looks like he could very well be a rough coated (maybe broken?) JRT, in my opinion. Definitely not "show quality", but I would assume he's all Jack, or mostly Jack. But I'm no expert! Sure is cute!

    He doesn't look very JRT in the face - he looks kinda Kelpie. His coat looks pretty soft, too - the longer-coated JRT's have a wiry coat. What's its texture like?

    I think his face looks pretty JRTish. If you ignore the prick ears. I've also seen too many poorly bred broken coated JRTs that are rather soft rather than wiry. The smooth are supposed to feel rough as well, and my 3 are all very soft.

    I think he looks like a JRT/ Cattle Dog mix. He looks like a good dog.
