What's the difference between Parson Jack Russell terriers, and Irish Jack Russell Terriers?
Q. I'm getting a dog soon, and I think I'm going to choose a Jack Russell Terrier. I know there are two different types, so if you could give me some differences between them that would be great.
Asked by Nickoli - Mon Jan 11 19:18:55 2010 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Hi there, The Parson Russell Terrier is a recognized breed under the all-breed dog organizations such as the AKC. Basically, if you want a Jack Russell that's a show dog, you get a Parson. They have longer legs and are less functional for hunting. There's no difference in temperament. More information here: Irish Jacks are simply Jack Russells bred for their temperament, rather than appearance or working qualities. They're supposed to be Jack Russells that are more appropriate as family pets, apartment dogs, and so on. Just a calmer version of a typical Jack Russell. More here: Hope this answers your question, Tom

What is an audio jack? If i plug in earphones into an audio jack is it supposed to work?
Q. I have two sockets in my computer, when I plug my earphones into one does not play my music but it plays on the other one. My computer tells me I have just added a device to the audio jack when I try to use the one that does not work so I wondered if an audio jack is something that does not play music when used with a earphone.

A. A TRS connector (tip, ring, sleeve) also called an audio jack, phone plug, jack plug, stereo plug, mini-jack, or mini-stereo, and more recently MP3 jack is a common audio connector. It is cylindrical in shape, typically with three contacts, although sometimes with two (a TS connector) or four (a TRRS connector). ===SM===
