Hi. I'm planning to get a Jack Russell Terrier, but i was wondering if i can have it in an apartment or in-house most of the day. I can only come back in the evening to bring him out for walks or jogs. Also, what are the things that i should take note to choose a good JRT? what is the standard price and where is the best place to buy one? i dont want to get cheated.
I'm currently staying in KL, in a house. But may move back to Penang next year and most probably staying in an apartment if you're wondering why i ask about both venues.

Not impossible, but will b difficult n truly demanding if u dun hv d time 2 gv ur JRT enof exercise n play. C thread ‘Can JRT b trained 2 live in a condo?’ under ‘Terrier Group’ column 4 some insights in apartmt living with a JRT.
As 4 any puppy, shld look 4 playfulness, alertness, responsiveness, agility n movement. Markings (brown, black or tan) shld preferably b confined 2 d head n base of tail ie. predominantly white. Head n body build should b in proportion to give an impression of a small, hardy and tenacious hunting dog. Comes in long legged n short legged varieties, n 3 diff coats – smooth, rough n wiry. Shld cost around RM1200 to RM1800. Think ppy.com sometimes has a recommended breeder list 4 JRTs. __________________________________________________

Just a couple of other things 2 look 4 in a JRT. Ears shld preferably b floppy ie. folded down with d tips around d corner of d eyes. Tail shld ideally b cropped but sufficiently long enof 2 allow a good grip by d owner 2 pull d JRT out from foxholes during hunts. Dey shld also look alert, full of vigor n play. But dese mayb difficult 2 c n judge ven dey r still pups.
Happy hunting 4 ur perfect rascal __________________________________________________
