: What do people who are familiar with Jacks think about me buying one in NYC. I have a medium sized apt, and will be gone most of the day every day. I know that when I am around I will show the dog lots of love.

: thanks in advance

Dear Frank,

Some breeds do well in apartments, some don't. Some breeds do well being left alone for most of the day, some don't. The combination of the two is a recipe for disaster...especially for a Jack Russell.

You can find out more about the breed by reading through this website. I've included some links for your convenience. Thank you for asking for advice before you bought a JRT.
