Читать книгу Jack Russell Terrier: An Owner’s Guide - Robert Killick - Страница 43

Find a vet you respect and like and tell him/her about your new addition. Make an appointment to see the vet two days after the puppy arrives home for a health check and his vaccinations.

Make certain that your garden really is escape proof. Jack Russells are notorious escapologists and the smallest hole attracts them like a bee to a flower. So check for holes in fences, gaps in hedges, gates that can be crawled under, bars that are wide enough to allow a small puppy through, and unprotected garden ponds.

Similarly, in the house, ensure that cupboard doors at ground level are securely closed, there are no trailing electrical leads or wires that can be chewed, and consider positioning a child gate at the bottom of steep stairs until the puppy is older.
