He's got the usual terrier traits - good with people, children, abit bolshy on lead with some dogs (fairly predictable which dogs he dosn't usually like!) and the usual one - he goes "deaf" when he gets an exciting scent. He's got into afew scrapes usually involving pet rabbits in back gardens and cats. I've tried the usual one-to-one training with some success, training classes were pointless, he just got over-excited. He's not food focussed when outdoor training. The main success has us both going out with a dog walker - she usually has about 5-8 dogs and he loves chasing the other dogs which keeps him away from squirrels, rabbit scents etc. Does anyone know of a dog trainer in the South Yorkshire area who is good with terriers in particular, or at least any suggestions for fenced off fields without livestock so the poor thing can be let off his lead!
