Jack Russel lovers unite

[yanchula81]

I don't want to be mean but its not technically a Jack Russell as recognized by organizations. That's the reason you never see any. Jacks are technically suppose to be over 51% white. I'm not saying its a bad dog, but its pretty much just a mutt terrier. The ears are also larger then a typical Jacks. I'm sure its a great dog, and in many ways it conforms better then most at being a Jack. Jacks aren't even recognized by the AKC anyways.

Here are two more sites with jack "standards"

I understand what you are saying, and this isn't aimed at you in particular Yanchula, but I just wanted to say a couple of things on the subject as I see it. :-)

Jack Russells aren't recognized by The Kennel Club (that's The Kennel Club) and as such aren't a pedigree breed. They are working dogs and the lack of recognition in pedigree breeders' circles is a good thing in my opinion - and probably why they have survived as such a hardy breed. That's how it has always been over here. I understand that in recent years some recognition has been made in the US for it to be a pedigree breed, but as I said, that isn't how things are over here.

Once the breeders get involved and start faffing about with things you tend to end up with monstrosities (don't get me started on bulldogs) with all sorts of problems, all in the interests of impressing some old fool at the show bench.

A Jack Russell lover knows a Jack Russell when they see one and they don't need to be referring to breed standards to appreciate one. Matts Jack Russell is lovely, as is yours Yanchula, along with all the others posted here. Let's all appreciate the diversity that comes with the breed and also appreciate the history behind them. :-)

And mine was the only one out of the litter of 6 that didn't "conform" to the standard of >51% white.....Oh well.

[BrigCA61]

Hey everyone newbie here with my first post... can't say how thrilled I was to find this thread. Aren't these little stinkers the best dogs ever? I couldn't resist so I took a few shots tonight of my two little active "jokers". Unfortunately it was night and I had to use the built-in flash. Not great photos, but bear with me, this camera is new to me since Christmas :)

Rebel XTi, Canon 50mm f/1.8 Mk I lens, Flash
EXIF: TV 1/60th, AV f/4, ISO 400

Sugar, my rescued 5 yr old Jack Russell Terrier. She also participated in JRTCA sanctioned trials and rec'd 4th place ribbon on her first time doing "go-to-ground".


243158
Opie, who I had since he was 7-weeks old. This a typical true-to-the-breed, ornry little terrier... but he has his sweet moments too. He owns my heart! He is almost 5 yrs old.

[willy b]

Md - cracking shot!
Brigca, nice dogs, but not sure about their clothing choice lol

Miss mine now, ah well 3.5 weeks till i see her again!

[cleverer]

Actually JRTs are now recognized by the AKC as far as I know, they are called "Parsons Russell Terriers".

The Black Jacks are not actually purebred JRTs, they are crossed with something, and I know a few people in the US started bringing them into this country as an "exotic breed" and selling them for quadruple the amount that they should have been sold for. (At one time Linda Tripp of Monica-gate fame was involved I believe)

I love the Black cross posted here, she's ADORABLE, but there are definitely non-JRT traits there. The body is not the right type, she looks like she is part lab. But none of that really matters, she's fantastic!

oh holy cats, Opie is FANTASTIC!

[BrigCA61]

"Jack Russell Terriers are a type, or strain, of working terrier; they are not purebred in the sense that they have a broad genetic make-up, a broad standard, and do not breed true to type. You will see different "types" of JRTs, from long-bodied, short, crooked legs to a more proportioned length of body and longer legs. This is a result of having been bred strictly for hunting since their beginning in the early 1800's, and their preservation as a working breed since. " Quoted from the JRTCA (http://www.terrier.com/breed/history.php4).

The black terrier looks like a Patterdale Terrier which is a type of Fell Terrier. You could say a Patterdale is a black Fell Terrier, and a Jack Russell is a (predominantly) white Fell Terrier. They are closely related, although not the same by definition.

[willy b]

Another nice shots Yan!

[cleverer]

Yan, I love your shots! What type of conversion are you doing? They are fantastic!

[yanchula81]

Yan, I love your shots! What type of conversion are you doing? They are fantastic!
Nothing special. Just put in monochrome in DPP then add sharpness. Mostly its just finding the right angles, that's what I have found makes a photo really pop. I have been working hard at improving my composition. Thanks for the compliment.

The last one I posted was a low light shot with a 1 sec exposure

I am sure enjoying all the great photos of their adorable JRT's. This is a fantastic thread.

Here are a couple more of my adopted/rescued Sugar, female JRT 5 yrs old.

Sugar is very focused and intense as she gets ready to race at the JRTCA Trial.


245435
Sugar enters the tunnel when the judge announces "go" for the Go-To-Ground JRTCA Trial event. Her first time ever in any trial competition and she received a 4th place ribbon! Yeah... Go, Sugar, Go!

Loving all the shots chaps!!!! Keep them up!!

[BrigCA61]

I hope this is the appropriate place to ask this question.

Sugar, as I mentioned earlier, participates in Jack Russell Trails, races, go-to-ground, barn hunt, etc. What I'd like to know is what sort of lens do you recommend for this type of "action" photography? The events are held outdoors in sunny N. California under blue skies with some shade in the scene provided by large pine trees so it can be pretty contrasty. What focal lenth do you recommend. Also, what lens would be good without having to spend a small fortune? I'm thinking maybe the 70-200 f/4L because the price is good for this quality. Thanks!

[willy b]

Well i have just ordered the 70-200f4, so not that it helps you, but i'm very excited lol!

I'd guess 2 lenses. One 70-200f4 and something wider for the closer action shots, your 17-85 would do well!

The most important part to making the shots work is getting to ground level. So if that means you need to be further away, go with the 70-200. I'd say go with your current lens and shoot, then at the end of the day look at what you have. If you think your images would benifit from being tighter in, go for it.

we don't know if she was intentionally bred as a cross but that was what we were looking for. we found her on hoobly.

she's 12 pounds! 11 inches tall and 14 inches long.

she's basically a mini jack but not a shorty

Yeah she is only 2 pounds shy of average Jack weight, so not too small. Mine is a steady 14.4 lbs

Thats very nice. I like to use B&W because my dog is just basically B&W. And I feel I can get better contrast that way. Also if she is not really clean it makes her look like she is. lol

[yanchula81]

This is after a day of playing hard. I took it over my shoulder to show a friend how she just crashed out. When she is really tired she won't curl up.

OMG, what do you mean "not technically correct"? These are awesome shots!! You really captured her well, showing her true JRT personality! She looks "bigger than life"!! And the last one........ OMG..... my jaw just dropped!! What a character she is! I bet you missed her something terrible! So glad to see you've both been reunited!! :) Did you happen to use your new 70-200 lens for these shots? (comments please)

Yanchula, your shots are always great, too!!

[willy b]

Thanks BrigC All shots are with the 70-200 apart from the 2nd and 3rd.
She is a brilliant little dog:) Very pleased to eb back with her lol!

Thats so funny with the big sticks, mine does the same. Today at the park Hera found half a rabbit in the river. She pulled it out and brought it over to me very proudly. The other day she found a coconut she dragged out. These dogs are great, and gross. lol

Hello, all. I'm new here. Actually just got my 30D this week, and it's going to take me a while to get used to the layout. Here's one of my first attempts with the camera. It's also my first attempt at PP (other than cropping). Of course, nothing fancy, but I'll learn as I go.

Welcome and nice pup! Try some high contrast B&W's, they're all the rage (at least with me) lol. But serious, welcome. Jacks are great subjects to practice photography on, they are so expressive.

[willy b]

Welcome FrostyWolf. Nice doggy!

[yanchula81]

I have a real problem with making stuff higher contrast B&W, but at least I admit the problem. I loved this photo as color, and posted it here a few months back. Then last night I got the devilish idea to do my favorite treatment.

That's a great shot! He reminds me of our little JRT monster.

[bigC]

Nice shots willy b, especially #8: typical Jack Russels, always thinking they're bigger then they actually are. :)

Also, love the B&W running picture, yanchula81. Looks like your JRT is really having fun.

[willy b]

Cheers BigC

Again technically not very good due to literally no light lol, so iso of about 800 or maybe 1600 can't remeber, but i like the expressions :)

Our new addition to the family, Maggie was rescued from a "not the best environment". this just after a long over due grooming. Hard to get a good shot of her as her eyes are so dark, they just suck all the light in!

[willy b]

Cheers Yan! Like yours too, man and his best friend:)
Dante, looks a nice doggy you have there! Good work on the rescue front!

[archaeoman]

Thanks Willy

Still playing with my new 85 f/1.2, there's a bit of a learning curve with it. That shot was a keeper though, with a few more non-keepers deleted.

yanchula81 (a couple of shots below mine) has some great shots as well.

I love the latest photos :-D Keep it up everyone!

More quality shots there Yan, that first is really cool!

Well tbh i need to alone...exam time, if doggie was with me i'd just photograph her all the time lol

Gisele, our Jack Russell / Blue Heeler mix. It was a rainy day and I was playing around indoors with the 50mm f/1.8 and flash.

As someone has already mentioned...dogs and couches...go together...

Very cool looking dog, how much does she weigh?

[shack]

Very cool looking dog, how much does she weigh?

Thanks. She weighs 20 lbs. The vet thought she would only get to about 15 lbs. I guess she has a little more of her dad's size than her mom's. She definitely has a JR temperament and mannerisms.

cool. You should try cow hoofs instead of rawhide, its better for them. They sell them at most pet stores for about a buck a piece.

[shack]

All my dogs (2 Beagles and Gisele) prefer the rawhide and pigs ears over just about anything else. We make sure we don't get any from China, etc... usually only US made. We tried cow hoofs and they tended to splinter so we don't buy them...but thanks for the advise.

[willy b]

Nice dog Shack! Whats this with pigs' ears, cow hide etc..seen them in UK, but never got one lol.

[shack]

Willy, these are chews that my dogs really enjoy. These are a couple of examples...

It was nice in the sun the other day, and Jack hasn't been able to really run at all this winter because of all the snow. So we had a nice bit of fetch in the afternoon. He was soooo happy to play!

[jde95tln]

My Aunt dog, but my photo. I took this on Easter at my Aunt and Uncles house. They want a copy of this shot, it's straight out of the camera just converted from RAW no other PP. Should I do any PP to this before giving them a copy?

Nice shot, only thing i may say, is lighten the face a little. Then you could try some effects - high contrast, b&w etc...

Nice wok though:)

How many ppl here get the "I didn't know think Jack Russells had long hair. I thought they all had short hair." And they give you a look like your a big liar for claiming your dog is a JRT. I have people swear up and down that Hera is not a JRT, makes me want to carry her papers around everywhere.

[willy b]

Hera is through and through a JR, i suspect anydoby that doubts it, needs their eyes testing lol!
