    11 year old Jess joins our Monday morning class ...

    An eleven year old Jack Russell called Jess has joined our Monday morning class with her owner Linda Sharp. Linda previously brought her young Jack Russell Betina to training and noticed when she was practising at home that Jess wanted to join in. So Jess is now attending her first ever training course at 11 years of age and is really enjoying the stimulation and attention she is getting. Jess must be the oldest dog I have had at one of my classes.
