This usually happens with most of these small breeds because people buy them for companionship but forget that they must be disciplined like any other dog. I honestly don't know how much genetics play a role here but the owners are to blame for not training them.

a lot of them, especially terriers, are high energy breeds and have high prey drives. giving them no exercise or training will turn them into little demons.

small terriers are actually goat tier pets if you're not an idiot

smart and fierce while at the same time tiny and cute

it's a deadly combination

Because they're an extremely high energy breed with an insane prey drive. You don't lock these pets up, they need exercise damn near constantly.
My body owns a few on his farm, not a rodent left on that property. They're fiercely tenacious animals, great dogs.

Why? I've literally beat the shit out of my friends dogs for showing me any sign of aggression on two separate occasions. If they value their dog more than you then they're not friends, op.

I think I'll put my money on the JRT. Especially if there are more than one.
It would take a pretty large red tail hawk to carry off an average sized jack russell, and even then it wouldn't be worth the effort. There are much easier meals for a hawk.
Coyotes typically stay away, especially if they hear dogs barking.

I had one named Lindey, she was a jack-russel/rat terrier mix and I have to say, one of the most passive little princesses I've ever seen, however, I do recall that if I scratched her back just in the right way she would bear teeth and snarl, I evaluated whether or not she was pissed or uncomfortable by different reactions, for example if I stopped she would get very clingy and want me to do it again or when she was actually snarling I would tell her to 'kiss' and she would lick my hand WHILE snarling.

Not really sure what their deal is but they certainly are strange.

Jack Russell were bred for ratting, larger breeds like the long legged variant and patterdales for taking in badgers and then you have the bully terrier breeds bed for fighting. They're killers, they're more athletic, aggressive and deadly than most larger dogs such as retrievers etc. Not many dogs could take on a badger and live to tell the tale.

I have 3 border terriers, It doesn't matter how tired they are, they'll still bark at other dogs.

They'll settle down if you stop to talk to them though.

>muh babies
They're dogs, not infants. If they ever get picked off, that's nature. The bulkier male tore a wood chucks ass open dragging it out from under the barn, I'm not too worried about it.

The coyotes don't come too close to his house, especially with his two big labs around. You should see the Russell's when we're cutting and bailing hay, might be the only time I've ever seen them out of energy.
