Meet Jack - Jack Russell Terrier Rescue of Ontario

Jack - QUIET MELLOW LAP DOG is a very sweet 13 yr old 10.6 pound dog - loves people, he gets along with other dogs and also with cats. Jack has lived in a home all his life and owner decided she no longer wanted him. We brought him into our care and we had him examined by a veterinarian, blood work and a complete dental done. He is in good health! Foster mom says he is no trouble and loves to sleep on her lap as she works on the computer. Jack is house trained and enjoys going outside but, like most of us, doesn't like to be out too long if it is cold.  
Jack would make someone a wonderful companion and wants nothing more than to be with his forever family.  Even at 13 he still has many wonderful years to make you very happy and keep you smiling.
Jack sure hopes he meets his forever family soon!

Happy Clients - Best Dog Trainer in Milton

It's always so nice to hear from clients happy clients who are seeing the results that they'd hoped for in their dogs. I'd like to share the latest:


"As I was walking Brooklyn yesterday it reminded me to thank you, now I know we are all helping in the matter however the big thanks goes to you with how far Brooklyn has come in terms of walking properly. If can remember how bad she used to pull ALL the time and also how I would avoid walking by any person on the side walk, its like night and day difference. Now she isn't perfect we still have our moments but over all her walking, her responding to commands she has come so far. We don't know what we would do without you! So thank you."

Separation Anxiety - Dog Training in Milton

Below is a good video on some techniques to follow when dealing with separation anxiety. We utilize some of these techniques ourselves and they WORK! As a disclaimer, not all dogs will react the same to a single method, however, this offers a good base to follow with different options.



In our opinion, the best thing you can do for a dog with separation anxiety is add some control in their life, teach them a "Place" command, and DO NOT allow them to trail you around everywhere (of course, that paired with a good obedience foundation). They start to learn that it's ok not to be glued to your hip, it builds their confidence and reduces anxiety when you move away from them. And remember, a crate is for your peace of mind and your dogs safety, so don't be afraid to utilize it in your training.

Thanks to Solid K9 Training for allowing us to share this video.
