Question:

I recently lost my little Border Collie to old age. I just brought home from vacation a little guy that is a Jack Russell terrier. He is 3 years old. He was in a rural setting and allowed to run. I live in an urban area. We are both having to adjust. I have another little dog( shitzu) spayed female, and 2 cats. So far he seems to be getting along well with them. He has attached himself to me! He follows me all the time. If I am eating he is staring. When I took him on a leash into my front yard and he saw concrete sidewalks he was timid about stepping on them, and did not know how to walk on a leash. I know nothing about this breed! He seems to have so much energy-- will he stay like that? would walking him help with that? I have learned some things I can relate to already at this site. Thanks Mary
