Breed Information

Overview

The Jack-a-poo is not a purebred dog. It is a cross between a Jack Russell Terrier and Miniature Poodle. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and understand that you can get any combination of the characteristics found in either breed. This designer breed is recognized by ACHC (American Canine Hybrid Club).

A Jack-A-Poo is a cross between a Jack Russel Terrier and a Miniature Poodle. They are energetic little dogs with big, lively personalities. They are intelligent, curious, and affectionate with their families.

Although they are not recognized by the American Kennel Club, they are recognized by other canine registries. The American Canine Hybrid Club, Designer Breed Registry, Designer Dogs Kennel Club, and more all recognize the Jack-A-Poo.

Temperament

The Jack-A-Poo is an active, energetic dog that thrives on attention and activity. As long as they are well-socialized and trained, they tend to get along well with children and other dogs. They have a high prey drive, so they will need extra training and socialization around other small pets. Jackapoos are initially wary of strangers and tend to alert bark. If they have been socialized well, they tend to warm up once introduced. Although you may not be able to keep them from alert barking entirely, you can work to train your dog to stop barking to help keep it from becoming a nuisance behavior.
