A breed standard (also called bench standard or the standard) in the dog fancy is a set of guidelines covering specific "externally observable" qualities such as "appearance", "movement", and "temperament" for that dog breed.
 Breed standards are not scientific documents, but are written for each breed by clubs of hobbyists called breed clubs for their own specific requirements.
 Details and definitions within breed standards for a specific dog breed may vary from breed club to breed club and from country to country.
 Dog breed standards are similar in form and function to breed standards for other domesticated animals.

 The American Jack Russell Terrier Club is affiliated with both the United Kennel Club and the American Kennel Club.

 It is traditionally called the "King of Terriers" because it is the largest of the terrier breeds.

 Despite a Kerry Blue winning Crufts (the most important UK dog show) in 2000, it remains an "unfashionable" breed, and is distinctly uncommon; however, it not as threatened as some of the other terrier breeds such as Skye Terrier, Sealyham Terrier, and Dandie Dinmont Terrier.
The Teddy Roosevelt Terrier is a small to medium-sized American hunting terrier.
 Lower-set with shorter legs, more muscular, and heavier bone density than its cousin the American Rat Terrier.
 There is much diversity in the history of the Teddy Roosevelt Terrier breed and it shares a common early history with the American Rat Terrier, Fox Paulistinha and Tenterfield Terrier.
 It is said the Rat Terrier background stems from the terriers or other dogs that were brought over by early English and other working class immigrants.
 Since the breed was a farm, hunting and utility dog there was little to no planned breeding other than breeding dogs with agreeable traits to each other in order to produce the desired work ethic in the dog.
 It is assumed that the Feist (dog), Bull Terrier, Smooth Fox Terrier, Manchester Terrier, Whippet, Italian Greyhound, the now extinct English White Terrier, Turnspit dog and or Wry Legged Terrier all share in the Teddy Roosevelt Terrier's ancestry.
 These early Ratting Terriers were then most likely bred to the Beagle or Beagle cross bred dogs (for increased scenting ability) and other dogs.
 Maximizing the influences from these various breeds provides the modern Teddy Roosevelt Terrier with a keen sense of awareness and prey drive, an acute sense of smell and a very high intellect.
 Although they tend to be aloof with strangers they are devoted companion dogs with a strong desire to please and be near their owners side at all times.
