Introduction

Border Jacks are beautiful.

A stunning mix between a Border Collie and a Jack Russell, these hybrid dogs are cute, active, and nothing short of being a bundle of joy full of love. There’s no doubt that Border Jacks are among the most interesting pedigree dogs when it comes to looks, so it comes as no surprise that they are rapidly becoming more and more popular every year.

History

Since Border Jacks are hybrid dogs that are only born from purebred parents, it’s safe to say that these dogs started to appear in the United States at some point over the last decade or two, but there’s very little recorded, official information. Due to the amount of energy these little guys have, it’s easy to see why they were bred for agility activities, but that hasn’t stopped them from becoming a popular home breed.

Personality

Border Jacks can simply be described in two words. Pure energy. It’s suggested that Border Jacks were bred initially to participate in agility sports, which makes sense when you consider how high-energy the purebred parent breeds are.

Very loyal and loving, Border Jacks are excellent around children and strangers, are incredibly friendly, and love nothing more than playing the day away. While there are next-to-no reports of abusive behaviour, Border Collies tend to be intolerant to negative treatment, which could result in tense situations between children if feeling overwhelmed. As long as children remain calm and supervised, there should never be a problem.
