not all plain sailing after you rescue or adopt a Jack Russel. Find out what you
should expect!
When it comes to a Jack Russel adoption, you might think
that you are doing the best thing in the world, and you might think that it is
going to be absolutely easy for you to have your Jack Russel rescue dog in your
life, with no complications. However, this is simply not true. Even though adopting
a rescue dog is a great idea, and benefits the dog very much, there are things
that you should keep in mind.
What To Expect
First of all, your
dog might be shy and withdrawn. When a dog is put into a new circumstance, even
if they seemed friendly and outgoing at the adoption center ,they might be withdrawn
and shy for awhile. This is because your Jack Russel rescue dog doesn’t know what
to expect. He might have had bad experiences with new surroundings, so he might
be very shy for a long time.
You should also know that your Jack Russel
rescue might have habits that you don’t want your dog to have. This might be something
that he has been doing his whole life, so it is going to be hard to get him to
be retrained to do things that you think a dog should be doing. You might see
things in your Jack Russel rescue dog that you don’t want a dog to do, but with
a little patience, you can retrain your dog.
How To Handle A Rescue Dog
When
it comes to handling your Jack Russel rescue dog, make sure that you are very
patient with him and very loving. Most of the dogs will respond to lots of love
and care, so if you give your dog lots of positive encouragement, you will probably
be pleased with the results. Be sure that you are loving with your dog, and give
him plenty of opportunities to show you affection. Let him show you affection
in any way that he wants to, and don’t expect too much of him.
You should
also know that with your Jack Russel rescue dog, it is going to be a long process.
You should be patient with your dog and give him all of the time in the world
to come around and also to learn new skills. Make sure that you are being very
patient and giving him lots of time to come to terms with his new life. He will!
