Jack Russell Terrier Forum:
Attacking

I have a 1 year old male and female JRT, and their mother who is 3 years old. The male is attacking the mother on a frequent basis for no reason. Is he trying to establish a pecking order? The mother is becoming somewhat withdrawn. He has also bit me and my wife and will growl at us after an episode. The only thing that stops him is if I call his name and dont scold him.

Any thoughts or help would be appreciated
