Question:

: There seem to be 2 catagories of Jack Russells in South Africa: short- and longlegged?? The short legged breed seems to be more popular in SA.

: We cannot find any clarification about this on the SA websites.
: Could you please send more info about this.

Hi Kitty,
I have two dogs from SA and both of them meet the standard, set forth originally by the Club in England. The SA Standard was taken from this standard also. Here is the Standard.
JRTCA Breed Standard

Sorry I don't know anything about shorties, except they are outside of any reputable clubs standard.
