: I own a year old male jack russell terrier. He is very sweet and not dominate at all. But, he will growl and bark at people he doesn't know or trust. He is really sensetive to eye contact. I was just wondering if you could give us any advice of how to work with this fear aggression problem. Thanks

Hi Rebecca,

If you put the words fear aggression into the search it will bring up tons of other postings dealing with this behavior.

In fact if you scroll through the most recent postings below, there are a couple that I just answered asking the same questions.

Look for barking/aggression in the posts below. I have written some lengthy posts addressing that issue, it should be of help to you too.
