Where to Get A Jug

Jugs are small crossbred dogs that come from two parent breeds that may have been questionably pair; the infamously hyperactive and domineering personality of the Jack Russell Terrier and the somewhat aggressive jealousy and easily triggered separation anxiety of the Pug can make for a high-maintenance hybrid. The proof may be in the pudding, as these puppies are inexpensive and too often found for free. They are lovable, however, but they may come with health issues, the possibility of severe separation anxiety and a rather needy personality. It's highly recommended that you learn all you can about Jack Russell Terriers and Pugs if you wish to adopt a Jug. This page will help you to understand if this adorable little dog is the one you want, where to find such a puppy and what to expect if you make this decision!

Jug Price

Jugs are small, cute and cuddly, and they are relatively low maintenance, rather easy to train and eager to please (i.e., socialize). Despite these wonderful aspects, however, Jug pups are inexpensive; it is not uncommon to find Jug puppies available for free on pet adoption Web sites such as Dogs.oodle.com. These are small dogs that come from two cute yet dissimilar parent breeds, and the possibility of any given litter's pups having strong Jack Russell Terrier traits (meaning high-maintenance, very active and extremely needy) may be another factor in why these hybrids are inexpensive when not available for free.

  • There is little demand but an ample amount of Jugs, which keeps the price down and often free.
  • The low demand tends to make health testing nearly a non-concern, and if you want to ensure you are getting a healthy Jug, you may pay a lot more for this extra "inconvenience."
  • Jugs are naturally very small, and there's not much smaller they can go; this makes size somewhat irrelevant.
  • Pugs are AKC-recognized, and while Jack Russell Terriers are not recognized singularly in name by the AKC, Russell Terriers are recognized and this greatly affects the cost of Jugs, a hybrid which is not at all recognized by the AKC.
