Thinking about getting a Jackabee

g about purchasing an Jackabee? Then read our breed profile including a brief description, information on height, weight, color, coat, temperament, grooming, activity and history. Purchasing a new puppy is a commitment that may last ten or more years so please educate yourself on the Jackabee breed, including all stages of their life from puppy hood to older dog.
Ask yourself will I be a good owner? Do I have the time it takes to train a new puppy? Do I have the resources to give my new dog a rewarding life. Do I have a local veterinarian that I can take my new dog to? Do I have a groomer or can I do the grooming myself on a regular basis.
Fundamental requirements for a being a good Jackabee owner;
  • properly feed your new dog,
  • house them comfortably
  • train them in basic obedience.
Before making a purchase talk to the breeder, ask them many questions about their dogs and the breed in general. A good breeder will teach you about the Jackabee and they will have many questions for you about your home and life style and if this breed is suited for you and your family.
Questions you may want to ask an Jackabee Breeder:
  • When were your Jackabees born? When will they be allowed to leave?
  • Have your puppies received their first shots? being wormed? had a puppy check up with your veterinarian?
  • What type of socialization have the puppies received? with children? with other pets? in the home?
  • Have you seen genetic problems in previous litters? What are your health guarantees?
  • Are there any health certifications on the sire or dam?
  • What is the temperament of the puppies, of the mother? shy? boisterous? aggressive? skittish?
  • If you become unable to care for your new Jackabee, will the breeder help you find a new home?
It is recommended that you sign a contract with the breeder so that there will be no misunderstandings on the arrangements made. Then bring home your new Jackabee and enjoy as "there is no greater love then a dog's devotion."
