I have a Dachsund and Jack Russell. What tactics have you used to calm your Jack? Have you tried obiediance training? Ours is very hyper and we can't get her to listen unless she is on a leash.

You said it all, she is a Jack Russell, they are just naturally hyper dogs anyway. My mother has one that is 12 years old and she is still insanely hyper. They are pretty cool dogs, very smart. You have to find a way that she will listen to you, weather it be on the lead as you said or treats or something else.

Sorry we don't have dogs, we have a cat. So, I can't help you there.
