hi mate i would have thought 9 inch is a little on the small side, i think they call em teacup russels if there is such a thing lol if i was you i would look for some thing about 12 to 13 inch if you want the traditional jrt . atb sp

Thanks mate and I thought so I saw a big border cross get a good bite lol and it would do more harm to a little dog.

9 inch jrt is good for sitting on yer misses lap but out in the field totaly useless.

Depends on the dog if hard or bayer mate and depends how you hunt if you a out and out digger or you bolt for hound or guns were this dog come from how do the parents work watt size are they horses for courses mate but me personally like a small dog what can fly around any earth with ease sure u will get a few different opinions on here pal good luck in your decision
