I raise Rat Terriers and they tend to be much more mellow than Jack Russells.  Mine get along great with animals and are good ratters.  There are two body types among both breeds, a short-legged and a long-legged version.  My experience is that the short-legged dogs have a tendency to be more aggressive and hyper.  They are very cute but a bit annoying. The taller ones are more easy going.
