I believe I have a dwarf JRT. Her name is Soni. She likes to bark and yipe at other dogs in the dog park. I can not leave her off her leash cause she'll take off on me. She gets very aggressive at other dogs no matter their size. Help?

If your dog sees another dog it will let it know it's there by barking and agressive behaviour particularly if it feels threatened. Don't let your dog off the leash if it doesn't return easily, get an extendible leash instead.

My jack is devoid of recall skill, too and they seem to be like this bkus of their prey drive. Everything that moves and squeaks is prey to them! They need a lot to do, lots of walks, agility, soccer ball play, a backpack to carry small items, anything to intensify their exercise. They are loving and loyal pets!
