Hi, and welcome to the highly strung world of the Jack Russell Terrier. I'm just looking in to that for you. As a rule though, more than one litter a year will damage your bitch, and as a result ruin the bloodline. But give me a day or two to get specific info for you...

Hi,
I can't tell you when your bitch will come into season, as this varies from bitch to bitch. Some come into season between 6 months and 9 months, but others hang on to puppyhood for more than a year.
Give her at least two to three seasons, even four, to mature before you start breeding her.
We have the Mona Huxley book "All about the Jack Russell Terrier" which has a lot of information in it and looks as though it can be bought on Amazon UK from £6.99-used.
