Are all jack russel terriers mean to small animals?
If your jacky is mean to other animals its usually jealousy or you’ve some how shown the dog this is ok to behave in this manner,dogs especially little breeds can be very fiery towards other animals or even people, this is really only because that particular dog thinks that behavior is ok as no ones shown it different.Put your jacky on a choke chain make sure its on the right way,get the pet store to show you ,the chain should come out of the metal loop and up to the leash so it checks the dog when you want to impress some behavior on the dog as wanted or unwanted ,a very short jerk on the choke chain is all you do ,nothing more, don’t strangle or continuously drag on the choke chain its only meant to be an attention getter not a cruelty chain, remain calm with a stern voice,hiss or growl at your dog or even poke it with one finger whenever it shows aggression towards someone or something, you’ve got to keep at your dog till it learns that you wont have that behavior ,no dog is too old
