	The "Puddin" is a mixed or mongrel canine often mistaken as the AKC ]. The Puddin Jack is often referred to as a Hunt Terrer, Irish shorty Jack or English Shorty Jack.

	The Russell Terrier or FCI Jack Russell Terrier is not a dwarf breed, shorty Jack, or Puddin Jack. There are NO variations of the Jack Russell Terrier, the Jack Russell Terrier is a breed. There is a different breed called the Parson Russell Terrier. In the past these breeds have been mixed, however, after 10 years of serious dedication to breeding the two separately (within the US and longer internationally), they should not be considered as variations. Any responsible breeder will not cross a Parson type Russell with the Jack Russell Terrier, doing so will only lead to body types similar to ] and other form issues which eventually lead to poor function.

	The Puddin Jack is not a recognized breed and is only a nick name for a mixed white terrier of small stature.



	==Health==
	Breeding this variety of a terrier will only result in health problems;

	'''Joint Issues''': Elbow and hip dysplasia, Patellar Luxation.

	'''Dwarfism''': the state of being a dwarf; underdevelopment of the body. May be the result of a developmental anomaly, of nutritional or hormone deficiencies, or of other diseases. See also achondroplasia, cretinism.

	'''Cretinism''': arrested physical and mental development with dystrophy of bones and soft tissues, resulting in disproportionate dwarfism. Due to congenital or early onset hypothyroidism. Seen in foals and possibly is an unrecognized cause of neonatal deaths in other species.

	'''Achondroplasia''': a failure of growth of cartilage in the young, leading to a type of dwarfism. Several breeds of dogs display this in their standard conformation, e.g. Dachshund, Basset. See also chondrodysplasia.

	'''Chondrodysplasia''': abnormal growth of cartilage; may be used to include achondroplasia. Causes disproportionate dwarfism and occurs as an inherited trait in cattle, sheep, and dogs (Alaskan Malamute, Miniature Poodles, and Norwegian Elkhound).

	==Misc.==
	There are registries within the U.S. that do register these mixed breeds.
