How to Train your JACK RUSSELL TERRIER

Training Your Jack Russell Terrier

The Jack Russell Terrier is brilliantly smart, highly athletic, and fiercely driven. They possess absolutely massive energy reserves and an intense work ethic.

Key Training Tips:

• Extreme Exercise Required: You cannot train a JRT if they have pent-up energy. They require vigorous daily running; a tired terrier is a trainable terrier.
• Mental Challenges: Basic obedience is not enough. They absolutely dominate in agility, Earthdog trials, and complex trick training.

They are intensely loyal "velcro dogs" that demand an intensely active, engaged owner.
