Re: Can you breed out a bad bite?

Absolutely . Well said Ross.

This little girl wouldn't pass any conformation test and I won't be breeding her but she's a firecracker in the AFTCA trials. She's got everything she needs.

Re: e-collar and digging

Timing is the key here. I would smoke her too but do you want to do it when she gets to the fence or when she puts that paw in the dirt? Is she going to associate the correction with just that spot or..........Who knows. It's not as simple as it sounds. No one digs more than a Jack Russell. We've gi...
