This experience has completely changed my perspective about jack russell dogs, a very challenging breed for sure. I do not suggest. My 5 year old Male Jack attacked my 15 year old Male Jack for no reason.. I couldn't pull him off and it was sooo scary Hi I have got a 6 year old jack Russell male and I have just getting a 8week old jack Russell puppy and the dog is keep growling at the puppy when he is wantyto play and if he goes near his toys I have only had the puppy 2 days will he be like this all the time?

Can you help me please. For anyone who has a jack who rubs the bum along the floor it's not always a case of worms, jack Russell's get swollen anal glands which need to be popped, my jack has them popped by the vet every time I see her bum dragging on my carpet!!

Annoying as it is I thought worms too but I was wrong lol. Need your help.. Have two females jack Russell both are 22 months old and both got fixed Some time they play toghter great some time they aggressive and got fight what should I do with them I love them so much I do gave them alots love It's pretty frustusrate me My jrt was outside going to the bathroom and when I let her in she was screaming and running all over the house.

We didn't know what happened to her. Was she scared? Was she hurt? We had know idea. She is Any advice. We have a rescue girl aged 1 year. She has been so good with children other dogs everything.

She has been with us 3 months. Today my daughter adult took her to a football match she has been to car shows and other places with us with no problem. She growled at her friends boy aged 6, and she felt fearful she might snap. She also growled at another dog. We had an incident about 3 weeks ago with a friends dog, but we established this was over food left down. As she has been so good before with children, strangers and other dogs I do not know what has caused this.

I heard there is a honeymoon period with dogs and maybe we need to be firm with her now as she is much loved by us all. Any thoughts. For all of you that owns a JR, be patient!

I have a nice jr giving to me at 2 because he destroyed everything in the house! I decided to give him a chance! I had at the time 2 others dogs he was friend with them all good!

I have always play so he get tired and never destroyed my house! At one point one of my dog was old 15 and sick and my jr was now5 he started attacking him in the neck and hurting him! I learn latter that some dogs can or want to kill a sick one but i end to old dog suffering myself at the vet!

My JR was then very nice and play with the other one! Yes he want to escape the yard so he always carry a long rope so i can step on it if he wants to jump the 6ft fence! He bites some delivery guy at the ankles but only one company??

He sometimes pee in the house if i leave but then he gets no cookies! And he knows too well! Now he is 8 he is more abd more lovely and i am learning that they are very intelligent play a lot show you are the boss but dont hurt them say no and use cookies when its good or piece of meat and love!

My experience so far works well! I have two brother jack russells and i love them both like children they have different personalities when i go out it seems that one has seperation issues and the other wants to punish me and i have an arm ful of scratshes and bites they bark at any noise when i stay at home i have a fight between them as they both want to be top dog they are stupid when getting them out but once they are they are great they dont like strangers and when they are aprouched i cant guarentee they will not bite.

Hi our 3 year old jack Russell is lovely and sweet at home but as soon as the postman or a delivery man comes she try's to attack them she's uncontrollable, have you any ideas what we need to do to stop her from doing this? After reading all these questions no answers, I've noticed I realize my JRT is a pretty great little guy after all he'll never be perfect.

He's 2 and I've done training with him in group lessons where he learns to focus on me with other dogs around and I can honestly say it's really working though it does take time and patience. These are clearly not train-'em-once-and-they're-done dogs.

Ongoing training is crucial and you always have to be the parent or the boss. These dogs require constant training, formally with a trainer first, then later on with you as "trainer" if you can always do what the trainer told you to do. I swear these were the dogs the trainers coined the term "no free lunches" for.

They need lots of interaction but you'll get your throwing arm in great shape. My Jack Russell is 6 yrs. She was given to us when she was 3 yrs by a lady that had her strictly for breeding. The ferrets she ignores. We now keep them separated they take turns having free run of the main level. I have to keep her in my grandson's roomthe rest of the time.

Seteeva the big dog is in thebasement with my son and fiance. The problem is the JR att6acks the basement door if shehears noice in the basement which sets off the big dog. We tried having them spend time together in the basement and she be doing really well playing,lick each etc. I love them both but it's driving crazy. If anyone can HELP please. I have two Jack Russels we are looking for someone to keep them for 1 month, Or how ever long it will take for us to move.

People with little dog have become afraid of them. They have been ordered to leave mobile Park. Do not want to destroy them. Owner loves them dearly They would love to come and visit. Please help, my jackrussel attacks my cat, my cat is very old and frail.

My doggy bites her neck. I see my JRT in so many of these comments, but what I need are solutions. I have been unable to do as much with my JRT since an illness caused me some limited mobility. She is very loving and protective of me, but my live-in grandson does very little with her and she sometimes does not get outside until afternoon. How do I then help my dog more and reduce increasing aggression? I got my JR when he was aged 6. He was not interacted with very much but fed and watered and sheltered.

Since in my home he has been a loving, funny, very smart little dog. He is an inside dog, has a bed in each room, sleeps with either of my sons and thoroughly enjoys his life. He is prone to be a bit aggressive if I want to enter either of my sons bedrooms after bed time but I work around that.

The issue I have is that although he has a doggie flap and uses it, is regularly encouraged to go outside to toilet via the door, he still pees and poos inside.

This is getting much worse and he is destroying my house. At around Tried everything including medication. It would break his heart if he had to live outside as he loves being part of the family but I can't keep doing this. Help us both please. We have two dogs the first is a Scottish terrier and we were given our Jack Russell which was three months old from our daughter our dogs are 12 and 10 now this long haired Jack Russell is scared of every thing , jealous and if my scotty wants to play JR goes her she will attack her ,if a dog which she has meet previously comes into yard I have to hold her until she stops snarling flip a switch and she wagging her tail.

Can't walk her as she gets hyper if see another dog so attacks my other dog when she was a puppy my husband and I were sitting watching tv and has a dog each patting them the JR flew off chair airborn to attack the other dog Dog fight on my lap so we don't do that any more I'm sure these dogs are just plain nuts. Hi, I have had my Jr. A year, he is 6. Since being attacked. By two different dogs. He has become.

Very clinging, and intolerant to other dogs, he,ll stand on garden wall or jump over it, just to have ago. Not physically, but alot of noise.
