Question
Hello. We need some more advice. Otto doesn't get along with other dogs. (9 month, Jack/Rat Terrior.) When he sees a dog he barks and freaks out. He was ready to take on 2 English Mastiffs today. Size doesn't matter. Please help us again. We were also thinking about getting another puppy down the line. Good or Bad idea? Thank you last time for your advice.
 ALicia, Jackie & Otto

Answer
Terriors naturally make up in attitude what they lack in size, so dont be frightened by his nippy alpha male attitude. this is a good thing, as he is ready to protect himself, if ever need be. Get another puppy! It would be great for otto, and he would soon learn and LOVE his new pal. It shouldnt take anymore then a week to get him acclamated. ANd this will provide for a great enviornment for the both of them as they grow up. Good for you!
