Ratty the bus catching JRT now on TV in Japan
Ratty shot to fame in Yorkshire in November 06 as the lone terrier who boarded the No 10 bus in York twice a week to frequent his favourite watering hole.

When the pub was sold and pets were barred Ratty did not despair. Instead he trotted off to the pub up the road and his antics have gained him celebrity status and an unwavering glare from the local paparazzi.

Now this pub loving Jack Russell is a sought after celebrity around the world. The BBC reports he is about to become a television star in Japan. Japanese reporters followed Ratty on his daily journey from the bus stop to the pub where he has his pint of beer.

Oh Dear!
Canine pitch invader
back at home

October 2004
The Burn family in Dublin had begun to fear they might never again see their beloved Jack Russell terrier, Brock.

When Martin Burn settled down to watch the second Test of the International Rules series on Sunday on TV, he could barely believe what he saw.

There was much hilarity among the 60,000 crowd at the game, as a small dog got onto the pitch and chased the ball.

He recognised the pitch invader as the family pet, and the dog was eventually returned home

Kevin Rudd had an unexpected guest at his speech in Adelaide
November 2007

As our parties Federal Leaders increase the pace of a marathon Election Campaign, every incident, no matter how trivial, has its significance some what conflated.


Take for example the story of Rupert the Jack Russell Terrier, taken along to Rudd's address to the marginal seat in Kingston, in support of the Labor candidate Amanda Rishworth.

Rupert's enthusiastic owner dressed him in a Kevin 07 T-shirt, but clearly underestimated the stress that the press and crowd would have on Rupert. The event caused him to nervously relieve himself on the stage and the evidence, in the form of two small nuggets, was duly recorded.

The journalists of course had a field day and punished us once more with banal puns about speeches being poo-pood. 

At least his owner did not enrol  Rupert to vote like Peter Rhodes of NZ did, with his Jack Russell, Toby.

Jack Russell Terriers are ever ready to try something new
as you will see from these News articles.

A keen intelligence and liveliness sees them joining in many of their humans activities and doing a bit more than just going along for the ride!

They also love digging, and some need a pretty big rescue operation to dig them out from under the ground when they become trapped.

Loyal and protective of their owners they are sometimes known to save the day.

Navy to Rescue as
Old Biddy is Swept out to Sea

May 2007 New Zealand
The Royal New Zealand Navy has always prided itself on its rapid response to an emergency at sea, so when a jack russell terrier was swept 800m offshore it immediately began a rescue mission.

Biddy, a 17-year-old jack russell terrier, was swept from her Stanley Bay home to the mudflats at Ngataringa Bay, near the Devonport naval base.

A passer-by noticed the small shivering dog and a rising tide and alerted the Navy's sea safety training squadron.

Naval leading chef Regan Garrett volunteered to go to Biddy's rescue, stripping down to his underwear and braving the cold to wade into the mud and water.

The dog was suffering from hypothermia so naval general service hand Steve Davis took the bedraggled Biddy to the vet.

By good luck it was Biddy's usual vet and owner Judy Grieve was quickly tracked down.
