I remember meeting Shaun and Stella a few years ago.  Stella was new and a charged up K9 - much as Jack Russells should be.  I noticed after several visits Shaun working diligently with Stella teaching her obedience basics.  I don't know if he went to a professional trainer, but my suspicion is that he worked with Stella pretty much by himself.

What I did observe was a very well trained and obedient Jack Russell Terrier, which is saying a lot.  They're usually very hyper and difficult to train.

Shaun spent a lot of time with Stella playing ball, taking long walks and runs. Stella was lost to a rattlesnake bite in 2006.

She will be missed at the dog park.
