🐾 MEET MARIE! 🐾
Small body. Big personality. Endless energy. And just a little bit of attitude! ❤️
Meet Marie, our little powerhouse! A true Jack Russell at heart: fearless, clever, full of energy and always ready for a bit of mischief. At around four years old, she is living proof that great things (and occasionally great trouble!) come in small packages.
They say a Jack Russell doesn’t realise she’s a small dog. She’s actually a big dog who just happens to have short legs. And Marie certainly agrees!
Marie has always been an independent little lady, perhaps just a tiny bit spoiled by her loving owners. 😉 She’s friendly, full of life and seems to have an endless supply of energy. Other dogs? Not particularly interesting, thank you very much! She usually prefers to mind her own business. Although, when she’s on the lead, she sometimes feels the need to remind approaching dogs to respect her personal space. A little barking, a little attitude, but underneath it all, a lovely character.
Not long ago, Marie moved to Spain, and what a life she has found!
A beautiful home, a garden full of adventures and fascinating little creatures to chase, and even her very own swimming pool! Yes, a pool! And Marie absolutely LOVES swimming with her owners.
She was already a happy dog, but let’s face it: Marie has hit the jackpot! ☀️🏡🏊♀️
But little did she know that life could get even better…
Dog training? Seriously?
“Why would I need training? I already know exactly what I want to do!” was probably Marie’s first thought.
Well, Marie, surprise, surprise! 😄
A few weeks ago, she joined Dogschool Axarquía, and to her own amazement, she discovered that training can actually be FUN!
Of course, there was a little challenge involved. Marie needed to learn that listening to her owners is not just an optional extra. And with all that Jack Russell energy, learning when to use it, how to channel it and when to slow down is just as important as running around at full speed.
Because even a little powerhouse needs to learn that life isn’t always about going from zero to a hundred!
And what a difference we’re seeing!
Marie is discovering that using her brain, concentrating and working together with her owners can be just as rewarding as chasing things around the garden. Perhaps even more!
She’s becoming more attentive, more responsive and better at managing her enthusiasm. And in the process, she’s showing us just how intelligent and eager to learn these wonderful little terriers can be.
Every week, she arrives at the training field with her tail wagging, ready for another adventure. Watching her progress, and seeing how much she enjoys working together with Robert, is an absolute pleasure.
Marie, you may have found paradise in Spain, but we think you’ve also discovered a new talent: being a brilliant little student! ❤️
We’re so happy to have you and Robert as part of the Dogschool Axarquía family!
Keep that tail wagging, little superstar! 🐾🌟
