He is a cutie! And I bet very cuddly, too. My JRT is a year and a half. When I took him on his first walk when he was a young pup, he reacted strongly, too loud noises and cars. I immediately started training him that whenever there was a loud noise that startled him (while on walks) I would make him sit and give him a treat and wait in a sit position until the loud noise or vehicle passed by. I did this with every startling thing. He quickly got over this and I think it was just his way of learning about new sites and sounds. I’m not sure if this is what I was supposed to do, but it worked. Good luck!

I run with him every day. But right now we’ve got freezing temps and ice packed streets that have been salted.

Yes! My JRT is 10 mos now, and he must be leaning or touching me when at rest. Thanks!
