Re: Training a Jack Russell Terrier Rabbit Dog
This Tractive looks very nice and affordable! Is it that rugged compared to a Garmin or Sport Dog? I'm surprised their GPS e-collars are so expensive compared to the Tractive models. The fee is low because you pay a monthly subscription fee , rather than a one time purchase amount. The location/map...

Appreciate all the advice. The problem for me is that many of the suggestions are not available in Canada ; to order from the USA doubles the price with money exchanges and shipping. I have to get it from my vet. It's a work in progress.

People say, "Socialize pup well and everything will be fine." This has not been my experience for every dog I have had , although socializing is an essential first step.

Training is very bonding for a dog. They love to have a leader to work for and work with. If you train, your dog will get closer to you. Fetch does not have to be a game for a dog,. He does not have to enjoy playing fetch in order to be an excellent gun dog. He can learn that "fetch" is a work thin...
