Generally they don't, but if they do it is normally due to cataracts or some other disease in the eye which causes them pain. therefore you could have the dog humanely put down or have the eyes removed.

Some people think its cruel to have the eyes removed but i know a Jack Russell that has had its eyes removed, and other than the occasional bumping into things, it has a perfectly normal and healthy life.

During any puppys early stages of life they should not be doing to much exercise. but thats not to say that they dont need any exercise.

How do you change a rotor on a 1998 Jeep Cherokee Sport?

Jack it up (make sure to use jack stands), remove tire. I assume you are talking about front rotors as the back is a drum. There are 2 12mm bolts on the back side of the caliper that need to be removed then the caliper should be easily removed from the rotor. At this point the rotor will just slide off the hub.


What breed of dog can live with a syrian hamster?

It really depends on the dog himself. You will always need to keep them apart, because even a small dog can hurt the hamster on accident. Some dogs, like Jack Russells, were originally bred to catch rodents in barns, so their prey drive might be stronger than other dogs.


Are Jack Russell a pain?

Any dog can be a pain if you are not ready for them, not responsible for their needs, or don't take the time you need to with them. That aside, Jack Russells are smart and energetic. This means that if they are not burning off all the energy they need to, they WILL think up another way to use it. Just their idea of fun, may not be your idea when they have to do it themselves. They are eager to please their owners, and are able to learn a lot of tricks with a little time spent. My brother's Jack Russell would roll over on his back with his tongue hanging out if you pointed your finger at him and said bang. They are the type of dog that you have to spend that kind of time with. They need the play and interaction. If you are able and willing to have a little best friend that you spend time with, then they are awesome dogs.
