Spots On Belly

by Bruce
(Minnesota )

I have a JRT this is white with black patches over her body. However, there are other black spots on the belly that resemble 'dalmation' markings. I was told I had a purebred. Is this possible?

i was a bit concerned about the black spots under romos coat there seemed so many of them, but reading your comments puts my mind at rest. i would welcome to hear from a breeder or vet why this is.

Spots Are Normal On Jacks
by: Stefanie

My jack russell terrier has lots of spots all over her body. Even under her white hair she has black spots (I can see them really well when I am giving her a bath). Her spots were very light when she was a puppy but have become progressively darker. If you look at pictures of other Jacks, most of them have these markings.

Mine also has lots of spots on his skin. It doesn't mean he isn't pure bread. It's a common thing.

Spotty JRT`s
by: jackie

I don't know if the spots make them pure breeds, my Apryl has loads of black and tan spots as well as her other markings.

Just makes her all the sweeter XX
