Information on Training Your Jack Russell Terrier Dog or Puppy

The Jack Russell Terrier is intelligent.

The Jack Russell Terrier is considered to be one of the more intelligent dog breeds which means they are quite responsive to training. If you want a dog that has limitless potential to learn clever tricks, this dog may be for you. Unfortunately, their intelligence can be a double edged sword. If you don't stimulate their mind and keep them occupied, they can become bored and destructive around the home, chewing up things or digging endless holes in the back yard. They are also well-known as escape artists who can crawl under, jump over, or slip through fences.

The Jack Russell Terrier is good with children.

The Jack Russell Terrier has a reputation of getting along well with children. Despite their boundless energy and rather high strung personalities, they also have a kind and gentle side especially when theyre exposed early to children. Although this dog breed, in general, responds well to children, children should be taught to respect a Jack Russell since they will defend themselves if they are given abusive treatment by a child.

The Jack Russell Terrier is an affectionate breed.

The Jack Russell Terrier tends to be affectionate with both adults and children and are tolerant of strangers. Their loving nature makes them a very popular dog breed.

Training your JRT is essential and it's advisable that you start your Jack Russell training as young as his early puppy years. Jack Russell puppy obedience classes will do wonders for helping, not only your puppy learn, but also assist you in learning about your new puppy. In addition to puppy and basic obedience classes for your Jack Russell Terrier, you might also consider enrolling him in some agility classes and competitions to help him expend excess energy.
