Possible character traits of Jack Russell Terrier and Pug mix - Such is probably his nature.

Jack Russell Terrier and Pug mix is a unique and popular mixed breed dog. Although it is not yet recognized by the American Kennel Club, this mixed breed is one of the most popular dogs in the world. The Jack Russell Terrier is a small, white terrier with a black or brown mask. He was originally bred in England for fox hunting. The Pug is a small, black or fawn colored dog with a short, wrinkled face. Pugs were originally bred in China as companion dogs.
