: You had mentioned in an answer about getting second dog and both having alph personalities and running into problems. How can I tell if my Jack has and alph personality?

Hi Josette,

Does your dog try to mount other dogs it comes in contact with? Does your dog try to pick fights with other dogs? Does your dog nudge you for attention? Is your dog highly territorial? Does it seem like your terrier is running the household and not you?

These are some signs of an alpha personality dog.
