No because a jack Russell terriers has hair. When hair sheds, it will float, unlike fur. Hair is on long haired dogs like pomerainians and jack russells. Fur is on short haired dogs like rat terriers and bull dogs. Fur will collect in the carpet and cause dander and allergy problems.

He's actually a Jack Russell Terrier because the Wire Fox Terrier's muzzle is too long and skinny, and the Jack Russell's muzzle is shorter.
Usually above 13 years. I have a Jack Russell that is 14 years old and still going really well. They live longer that most dogs, for a small dog.
We have a Welshie/Jack Russell mix who is 15 and going strong, despite spending the first seven years of her life churning out pups in a notorious puppy mill. Aside from a few stray white hairs, she can still pass for half her age. She runs like a gazelle, dances, etc. Long may she continue in good health. Nothing is written in stone when it comes to dogs' longevity, especially terriers.
The difference bettween a Jack Russell Terrier and a Parson Russell Terrier is the Parson Russell Terrier has Longer legs and therfore is not as stocky as the Jack Russell terrier, but because the Parson Russell Terrier has longer legs it is also a little faster Than the Jack Russell terrier. The Parson is recognised by the Kennel Club, it is a "pedigree dog" with a breed standard. The Jack Russell comes in many shapes and sizes, it is not recognised by the K.C. and has no breed standard. They both can have rough, broken or smooth coats.
they live approximately 13-15 years of age.
yes. only poodles dont shed ^ that answer is not entirely true, long haired jack russell's do not shed as much as short haired. I have a short haired jack and he sheds alot.
I have never known a Jack Russell which has died before 12 human years, (apart from the ones who have died of illness). My mother's old Jack Russell lived to 22 human years, so they live to very old.
