Biting Other People
by: Harborview-Mary

Hi, Sounds like you have your hands full with Bubba. It could be a number of things, I'll mention a few. It sounds like it could be a possessive thing over you. Do you feed, walk and sleep with Bubba? If so, you may need to change that and give Bubba his own bed in the main part of the house or even on the floor of your room, have someone else in the house feed him and take him outside. It also could be he is insecure. This sounds counterproductive, but I would take him out for more walks, increase his exercise 10x what he is getting now. add a pack on his back with filled water bottles on each side, Make him work some of this energy off and give him a job by carrying these things. It will boost his self esteem. he needs to be tired out more often. Obedience classes would help also. Just make sure you find someone that understands Jacks. Don't go to someone that uses harsh treatment to 'break him down" then build him up. that does not work with these dogs, any dogs for that matter. Make him work for his food, twice per day. He must sit for someone to give him a kibble at a time till he has finished his meal hand fed.
Hope some of these suggestions help. Remember above all, he is a jack russell terrier, aka dog. You and your family must be consistent in training and do not treat him like a child, baby. he has an active mind and high energy, If you work both of these things I'm sure you will see results.
