Bo-Jack History
The Bo-Jack is a cross between the Jack Russell Terrier and the Beagle. The Bo-Jack is a medium-sized, energetic, and fun-loving hybrid. The creator of the Bo-Jack is Steve Feldmann, who first bred the toy-sized Max-Russell in 1998. The popularity of the Bo-Jack has grown rapidly in recent years. The popularity of the Bo-Jack has soared since its first introduction to the canine show circuit in 2001. The 2007 Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show was the first occasion on which the Marvellous Mutt, a 6-month-old male, was entered into the competition. The Marvellous Mutt won the Best In Show award and became the first (and only) purebred and intact mixed-breed to win a best in show title at the Westminster Dog Show.

Bo-Jack Temperament and Behaviour

Bo-Jack Activity Requirements
The Bo-Jack is a cross between an American Staffordshire Terrier and an English Jack Russell Terrier. They are a small, muscular dog that is known for its friendly and confident temperament. While Bo-Jacks are not high-energy, they are definitely not couch potatoes. They do require a moderate amount of exercise and should have a daily walk, as well as the opportunity to play. Like their terrier ancestry, most Bo-Jacks have a lot of energy, which can sometimes lead to destructive behavior. If you do not think you will be able to provide your Bo-Jack with plenty of activity and attention, you may want to consider a different breed.
