Service dogs can be any size or shape, however they need to do the job they are assigned. Most guide dogs are medium or large breed so that the harness is easily with in reach. All guide dogs have extensive training and impeccable temperaments. One large school trains for 28 months before assigning the dog to a blind individual.
Jack Russels have several flaws that would make them a poor choice as a guide dog.
Energy level, independence, aggressiveness, protection/aggression issues and their small size.
Due to their size they are not large enough to pull a wheelchair, so their use is limited mainly to diabetic, seizure, hearing and retrieval tyoe tasks. Several customs dogs are Jacks.
