How smart is your Jack Russell?

Test your dog's IQ at the "How smart is your Jack Russell?" meetup.

Alamo Jacks will host a IQ meet up at Pearsall Dog park on, June 7.

The event will begin at 9:00am with a short walk, followed by a fun IQ test for all the dogs.

Some of the test items include: a shell game, Find it! and others to test how quick your dog learns.

There will also be a speaker to spend about 10 minutes with us discussing the importance of mental stimulation and mental exercise for all dogs.

In addition to the games a display of interactive dog toys and the famously hard to find, Nina Ottosson puzzle toys will be available to examine.

After that we will head to the Dogpark for some socializing fun!

There will be a drawing for several prizes:

* Book, "50 Games to Play with your Dog"

* Several Interactive Dog Toys

* $ 50.00 Gift Certificate to Fifi and Fido

All participants will receive a gift bag to take home.
