Good morning
for the first time in years the Steel household will once again heat the putter pat of little feet.
We don’t want to crate the little guy.
he will mostly not be alone so biggest concern is nighttime.
any suggestions for how to minimize the peeing in house at night? Should we get one of those pee Mats?
garces in advance
Just teach him to use the door knob.This dog will be 39” at the shoulder so no dog door.

I read that the main reason they chew is excess energy. Work them out as much as possible so they’re too tired to chew on your stuff. It worked for my aussies.Ok. Next question:
chewing. Very mouthy. Everything goes in mouth and gets chewed on.
is the answer just have a lot of chew things and toys and pork chomps etc? When he chews something bad redirect him to a good chew thing?

I’ve got two Jack Russel Terriers that are brother and sister to each other. They are the most insane breed of dog I’ve ever seen. Territorial and smart, they don’t know how little they really are. Highly intelligent and will only mind you if they feel like it. They both were top of their training classes when they were pups. Sometimes they’ll look back at me when I’m trying to get them to stop something and then turn around and keep on doing whatever it was they were into. I’m usually like, why you little sombitches! I love them to death.I just got a new dog about a month ago.
He's a Jack Russell Terrier mix who will be six at the end of July.
Saw him at the shelter and he didn't seem to like me.
But something kept tugging at my heart to give him another shot.
I went and saw him again and this time he put his paws up on me and was so friendly I took him home that day.
Best decision I have made in a while.
He is such a good boy and so well behaved.

Update on the Pup:
First of all, your advices have been great. Some of them reminded Steel of when we used to have puppies.
Anyways, this little IW guy is really intuitive. Came to us Sunday, just before turning 9 weeks (which was 6/30); not house trained. Now he is pretty much house trained, already.
Got him a bunch of things to chew; did get a fabric crate that he goes in at night, no problems. he even dives in there sometimes during the day.
He's between 20-30 pounds now, eats 3 bowls a day with a scrambled egg in there. Now that he's getting into a routine at our house, is sleeping more.
Never know what you're going to get with a dog but this one seems like he's going to be a really good one.

I suggest letting him chew on your head.Ok. Next question:

Got one of these a few weeks ago, it works great.You know what? Some of you on here are good dudes. Or dudettes. Whatever.
and then there’s @TxFrog1999 snd @Frognosticator , who are both large piles of unmitigated dogcrap. With a flock of those green bottle flies on top. Laying eggs and making maggots in there and stuff and such
