Question:

Our JRT chases his tail and barks at it. He will stop grab his tail stand up and then turn around in a circle.The vet said it could be a few things. They tried draining his glands, he wasn't full, they then put him on medication but he still chased his tail.We gave him a flea treatment and bought him a kong. We have been taking him out for a good run each day . He hasn't been doing it as much. We find if he is being played with he is fine but we can't play with him constantly. Should we put him back on medication or is their maybe another reason?
