Default A few Jack Russell questions

Hi all

I’m looking after my best friends Jack Russell for two weeks and now
that I have her I’m starting to worry about a few things. Hope you
don’t mind me asking for a bit of advice.

Firstly she loves tennis balls, which includes ripping the fluff off
of them. Could this be a choking hazard? And what about tea bags? She
has found a few that have been chucked on the garden and seems to like
ripping them apart.
Finally, I am going to have to leave her on her own for two hours a
day. I have tennis balls, a rubber toy and a few treats. I know she
will be a bit winey but should I be aware of any serious distress?


My boss's wife's JRT ate their woodwork and a bit of the drywall, and
tried to eat the flooring. I would try to limit her zone of
destruction for those two hours a day.
