Jack Russell Terrier versus Saint Berdoodle: Overview
A very important difference between the Jack Russell Terrier and the Saint Berdoodle is the size difference between the two dog breeds. The Jack Russell Terrier is a small-sized dog while the Saint Berdoodle is a large-sized dog.

Next, we added the scores of the factors that can be added together for the Jack Russell Terrier in the table (that is, `Ease of Grooming` score + `General Health` score + `Calmness` score + …etc) and we compared it to the corresponding total score for the Saint Berdoodle.

We cannot put a number on how cute a dog breed is, for example. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
