The Behavior Patterns of Jack Russell Terrier
If you want to be owner of a Jack Russell Terrier, the first and
foremost thing one must remember is to train him for obedience and
discipline. The Jack Russell Terrier dog's life depends on it as even a
well trained dog in his curiosity will find something interesting to
chase and even disappear into a hole when you are not watching, which
will lead to a dangerous situation for a Jack Russell. Always have a
secure and safe fenced yard if you are not an experienced Jack Russell
Terrier owner. Due to their natural tendency and their hunting instinct
Jack Russell dogs will be roaming around. You may think that you are
with him for quite a long time period and you know them well you are
mistaken. They may suddenly disappear if let un attended for a long time
and may never come back There are many instances that the Jack Russell
Terrier dogs are run over by passing vehicles when they are being
something interesting to them on the road. You may be scorned at by
other people for letting the Jack Russell Terrier dogs unattended as the
will go digging the road, climb trees or chasing fencing of any height.
They will turn to be a nuisance to you as they can be very destructive
when left unattended and unemployed, which are mainly because of lack of
companionship, discipline, activity and exercise.
The well-behaved Jack Russell Terrier dogs are the ones that were lucky
enough to be exercised, well socialized, and trained. Their nature of
being a country dog does not change when they are made to live in a city
or suburban-type environment and their needs and instincts remains the
same. It is most unreasonable on our part to expect them to be anything
other than what they are for. Genetically bred to be a serious hunting
dog, if you want to be a proud owner of a well behaved, intelligent and
obedient Jack Russell Terrier dog, then you must change your life style
to adjust to meet their needs. They should always have a job to perform,
an outlet to their considerable energy and intelligence. I would not
advise anyone to go in for a Jack Russell Terrier dog if they are
intended to be constrained to an apartment The owner of a Jack Russell
Terrier must always have time and energy to give them what they need,
whether it be exercises or outdoor activity as they are used to such
high-density living. They always need to run; they are not satisfied
with leisure walking and their boundless energy level needs brisk
exercises which always are time consuming. If you are not able spend
considerable lot of time with your Jack Russell Terrier dogs at home and
outdoor activity, with a safe place the terrier can run, and then is not
the dog for you. There are instances of many rescues calls come from
apartments, or homes as the Jack Russell Terrier dogs are left alone by
the owners work away from the home for long periods of time. The Jack
Russell Terrior dogs are not even a bit tolerant to silly
behaviours,even from a child such as pinching,pulling the tail.
The energy and qualities of Russell Terrier should be used
effectively for the upliftment of mankind since the potential of a dog
is still under utilized by the society. What we know is that the dog is
meant for protection where as Russell Terrier can be usefully trained as
a servant for doing various simple and necessary works.
