32% protein, for a puppy who never stops moving.
A Jack Russell puppy is a working terrier in a small package, and she has the energy budget to match — bred to go to ground after quarry, with an engine that doesn't idle. Feeding her like an ornamental small breed under-serves her.
Protein runs at 32%, the highest of any small-breed puppy food here, to build the dense lean muscle the breed carries. Fat at 18% fuels it without tipping into weight. Calcium at 1.2% and phosphorus at 1% support a compact, sturdy skeleton, and betaglucans with prebiotics cover the immune and digestive side while her own defences establish. She moves onto Jack Russell Adult at eleven months.
Dehydrated poultry protein, rice, vegetable protein isolate (L.I.P. — protein selected for its very high digestibility), wheat, animal fats, maize, hydrolysed animal proteins, beet pulp, maize gluten, fish oil, minerals, soya oil, yeasts and parts thereof, fructo-oligo-saccharides (0.34%), hydrolysed yeast (source of manno-oligo-saccharides), yeast extracts (source of betaglucans), borage oil, marigold extract (source of lutein). Additives (per kg) — Nutritional additives: Vitamin A 29,500 IU · Vitamin D3 800 IU · Vitamin E 590 mg · E1 (Iron) 38 mg · E2 (Iodine) 3.8 mg · E4 (Copper) 12 mg · E5 (Manganese) 49 mg · E6 (Zinc) 132 mg · E8 (Selenium) 0.08 mg. Technological additives: Clinoptilolite of sedimentary origin 10 g. Sensory additives: Yucca extract 125 mg. Preservatives. Antioxidants.
Store in a cool, dry place, sealed. Use within six weeks of opening. Terriers need work more than they need walks — scent games, digging boxes and training tire a Jack Russell in a way a lap of the block does not, and an under-stimulated one will find her own entertainment. Keep her lean; the breed is prone to luxating patella. Recall training from day one, because the prey drive is not something you argue with later.
