He was holding the meanest dang dog I have ever put on a lead in my life. This terrier could kill a coon so fast I couldn't believe what I was watching. Not only that he dang near killed my black'en white plot hound.
Larry, This just makes me laugh! I want a smooth Fox (but now may be getting a German Pinscher in my future; and I can hear anyone that knows me…not another dog! LOL) but have a Jack Russell Terrier, by the name of Jackie. Jackie is the most lovable, intelligent dog you have ever seen. He is also a mass murderer of moles, rats, mice, snakes, squirrels (if he can get them), possums (by himself), a couple of skunks (he smelled really good after that) and helped with disposing of a coon (assisted the GP). This is the ground type JRT (short legs) and he hunts and works the farm all day long. He weighs around 13# (although right now on a diet as he stayed at mom’s and put on weight) and will take on anything that does not belong in our yard. Not only does he take care of varmints, he is one of the best heelers of cattle you have ever seen. You set him a line not to let the cattle through, and he gets to work. This is not only the Fox Terrier…It is in ALL Terriers. Some more than other, but they are tenacious dogs that are born hunting and active. People do not understand this and think they are just cute. It just so happens that the Fox and JRT are both a little OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) when it comes to their “job,” they get into a fight mode and they don’t care who they fight as long as they fight. It can be a little bit dangerous in a pack situation as they just don’t turn on and off like other dogs. But I do love their personality. Jackie knows McDonalds is where you get hamburgers and Walmart is where you get chicken livers when you go in the car, plus so many other things. My father has been dead for 3 years now and he will still get excited when he sees a man that resembles my father.
