Less common than Jack RUSSELL , this is reverened john russell’s other legacy to breed redistries , a longer –legged terrier , able to keep up with horses on a hunt but still compact enough to dig after foxes . originally classified with the JACK RUSSELL, it has the same ebullience and energy as its near – namesake , and also comes in wire and smooth –haired coats . the wire-haired type was preferred by the breed’s originator, but both types are equally popular today .
