Older JR biting
Help!
I have a neighbor who has a Jack Russell that they acquired via their college aged son. The dog was several years old when the son got him. There is some suggestion of abuse in the dog's past (prior the son's getting him). The problem is that the dog is prone to biting anyone who comes to the door. Most of the time he can be caught before the door is opened, however every now and then an acquaintance will ring the bell and open the door. I've seen a lot of advice on training a puppy, but is there any hope of breaking an older dog of this habit? They've already contacted several "behavior experts" with no real results. They really like this dog and are willing to do almost anything to keep him. Any suggestions would be appreciated Thanks, Drnec |
