Question:

I guess I was not real clear. It is the new JRT and I am looking for the best option on teaching her not to be jealous and go after the TFT. She does this so much he has become afraid to come for attention.

I have a 8 year old male (neutered)Toy Fox Terrier who seems to be doing great with the new 10 week female JRT. The problem seems to be her (JRT)jealous behavior. You try to pay any attention to the male(TFT) and she(JRT) just freaks out. Any suggestions in correcting this behavior? Thanks!
