Dog Health Questions: Dog Training Advice...?

I have a jack russell and walking her is becoming a real chore, she pulls on the lead and barks alot.
Is there any ways i can train her from home that will actually work??

Dog Training Ebook Review - SitStayFetch



Recommended Answer:
We have this exact same problem with our Lab, and just found the most fabulous thing that works almost immediately.

It is called Gentle Leader...

It works by sitting loosely on top of the dogs nose and tightly high on the neck. What happens is when the dog tries to pull, you give a slight tug on the leash and the collar causes the dog to turn his head towards you.

We put this on our dog and it the first day he was a 100 times better. You still need to work with the dog but it makes it so much easier. Our obedience trainer recommended this to us and I wish we would have gotten it when we first got our lab a year ago.

There are a couple of different brands called Halti & Promise. It was suggested not to get the Halti brand as they fit too loose.

If you decide to go with the Gentle Leader, make sure you follow the instructions fully for fitting it, or it doesn't work right.

I hope this helps.

Dog Training Tips


  • You would do well to train the dog to walk on the leash.
    Try looking at the "Dog Whisperer" for help.. or his books or web site.
    OR there is a lead that hooks under the chin that is helpful.
    The dog should be trained to walk beside you;.. Not in front.

  • i seen on a show always have the dog walk beside you on a leash dont let her pull you because that means shes is in control so you have to be in control and just hold the leash so she will be beside you it make take time but she should get used to it! i know because i have a chihuhua and hes little and he trys and pulls me and hes so small lol

  • start in the house and yard and work with her on staying next to u do not allow her to walk ahead of u that lets them be in control when u walk out of the house she should wait and exit after u u are the leader not her then when she barks try using a shh noise but be loud or aaat when she stops priase her when she is barking do not give her phyical touching like petting or holding that incurrages the behavor

  • I have this leash connector someone else decsribed in her answer to you. It hooks onto the dogs collar and goes around their nose. Then when they start pulling, since its around their nose and attached to their collar it is very uncomfortable for them. I use this on my dog who weighs 50 pounds and its a dream come true! He walks at my pace and its great! They sell it at Pet Smart.

  • Jack Russell Terriers are very intelligent which make them easy to train. These are very useful,

  • Hi!

    You should train your dog with a proven system. There is a guide I used and got great results. It is called 'SitStayFetch'...

    But, what exactly makes this guide so special? Would it be something that can really help you train your dog?

    When you first download SitStayFetch, you may become overwhelmed with the sheer volume of material presented. Not only do you get over 170 pages of information, but you also get nine audio files, eight videos and several bonus books.

    What you will quickly notice with this book is that it's very well organized. It comes with a detailed table of contents for quick reference. It really helps the user get a quick overview of what's to come and to also go directly to a specific area of the book they need to look at.

    The content of SitStayFetch is actually used by leading dog training professionals around the world. The solutions to numerous behavioral problems such as barking, aggression, chewing, digging and jumping are offered to the reader in great detail.

    Another great aspect of SitStayFetch is that it allows you to correct an older dog's retained habits so the saying "you can teach an old dog new tricks" does not apply if you implement the methods found in this book.

    Beside the obedience training commands and tricks you will learn, here are just some issues you can eliminate by using Sit Stay Fetch:

    - Puppy and Dog Aggression
    - Biting and Nipping
    - Bad Breath
    - Dealing with 2 dogs in the house
    - Jumping on people and furniture
    - Jealousy
    - Fighting with other dogs
    - Fear of leash
    - Hot weather
    - Separation anxiety
    - Housebreaking and house training

    The SitStayFetch guide contains full color photographs that will help make you own learning process even easier. You can also get a set of 8 videos which will further complement the main guide. With the videos, you will be able to see the dog training techniques in action which is probably the best way to learn the material.

    The first section is an introduction for people who are considering buying a dog or puppy and for first time dog providers. The second division is for more experienced dog owners. The last part goes into more detail on the increasingly popular technique of "dog whispering", as well as learning more regarding common and uncommon dog problems, and teaching more advanced commands and tricks.

    You will agree that this appears like a wonderful dog training guide. And I have found out that it really is. My amazing dog has never been so much of a delight!

    Check out my source, hope it'll help. Good luck!
