Jack Russell Training Advice For Dogs From Rescue Center

Most canine gurus advise that jack russell
training must begin at a young age because it is
believed that puppies tend to be more responsive
to changes compared to adult ones. In addition,
young puppies have not yet acquired bad habits
that are hard to break thus make training
easier. But that is not the case all the time.
Contrary to the popular belief, grown dogs, even
those from rescue centers, can be easy to train
too... easier to train than young puppies at
times.

Before the training begins, or before you rescue
a dog for that matter, it would be a smart idea
to examine the potential one first. Although not
all dogs in rescue centers are problematic, it is
important that you're certain that that
particular breed suits you. Be aware that a high
energy breed like the jack russell terrier
requires more exercise than breeds such as
dachshund and bichon frise so if you think that
you can't provide the daily exercise
requirement, better consider other dog breeds.

Jack russell training ought to begin once your
pet arrives home. During his first few days at
home, it helps to focus more on socialization
and building trust. Introduce him to other pets
and animals, things and people but bear in mind
to do so gradually. The entire
abandonment-adoption process can be overwhelming
to some dogs hence he must be given time to learn
and settle to the new atmosphere you brought him
into. One way to to help him adjust quickly is
to make every encounter rewarding and enjoyable.
Reward him with a yummy treat every time he's
introduced to people, animals and so forth.

While you are working to earn your pet's trust
as well as the pack leader status, begin working
on the basic obedience. If your new pet is
already trained by the past owner, all that is
needed is polishing. Your dog must learn jack
russell training commands such as sit, down,
come and stay for they're helpful in keeping him
safe and controlled during various situations.
Moreover, these commands also serve as
foundation of various dog tricks like shake,
crawl and roll over and also other advanced
lessons you want your dog to master in the
future.

Many pet owners are enjoying their dogs from
rescue centers but there are still a lot of
homeless dogs waiting for someone to rescue them
and give them the life they deserve. By providing
what your new pet needs - high quality food,
grooming, exercise and jack russell training -
certainly you won't regret rescuing a jack
russell terrier.
