"Don't fight genetics... fulfil them."

My Beautiful little girl Ruby.

Ruby is a 7yr old JRT and my personal Service dog.

She found me when she was just under 1yr and we got straight to it!

We make a lovely team, and this video is all about giving her what she needs to help me when I need her.

Genetic Fulfilment in Action 🐾

Every dog was bred for a purpose, and when we tap into those natural instincts, we create happier, calmer, and more fulfilled dogs.

Ruby is a Jack Russell Terrier, a breed developed to hunt, chase, grab, and problem solve. Rather than trying to suppress those instincts, we give them a healthy outlet.

Using a flirt pole, satisfies her chase drive.

Tug, fulfils her desire to grab and possess.

Ball work channels her prey drive and energy. While obedience, teaches her how to switch on, switch off, and work as a team.

When we meet a dog's genetic needs, we don't just tire them out—we fulfil them. A fulfilled dog is often easier to live with, more focused, and less likely to seek out unwanted ways to entertain themselves.
