Carolina Jack Russell Terriers

We offer all 3 Jack Russell terrier coat types

The coat of Jack Russell Terriers is known for its unique ability to repel water, dirt and dust, which makes it especially practical for a breed that is actively used in hunting and other outdoor activities. This feature of the coat helps it stay clean even in wet and dirty conditions, and also helps it self-clean, greatly reducing the need for frequent bathing and requiring less maintenance.

Jack Russell terriers exist with three main types of coat: Rough coat, Smooth coat and Broken coat. 

Rough Coat-long haired 

Course-coat  that needs regular trimming rather than a haircut. Trimming is the process of removing old, dead hair by hand or with a special tool. This allows the new coat to grow healthy and strong.

Smooth- Short haired

Smooth-coated dogs have short, smooth hair that requires much less maintenance than hard-coated dogs. Their coat is easy to keep clean with regular brushing with a soft brush.

Broken Coat

Dogs with a broken coat (intermediate type) have a combination of hard and smooth coats.
