Cute pup, although he ain't doing that shirt any favors. Our Jack carried a perfect arrowhead between the eyes. When he first came here as a 2 yer old he killed a couple of my layers. I managed to impress on him the error of his ways, and he never so much as chased one after that. He'd even follow me into the chicken yard once in a while. I had goats then, and a couple of them had gotten out, and weren't about to get caught. I told Earl (he came with that God-awful name for a dog) to go get them. He got in behind them and headed them in the right direction like he'd been herding goats all his life. Never could get him to do it again :gig

That is funny my dixie also a jack was bought to kill snakes when we found some poisionous ones in the barn, the exterminator actually told us to look into the jacks for snake control and i youtubed it and sure enough i knew i had to get one! (im deathly afraid of any snakes let alone poisionous ones!) Long story short although i havent seen any snakes this year, i havent seen her kill none either. But one thing she has taken to wierdly enough is hearding the goats and chickens for me, and she does it everyday! At first i thought it was just a fluke or something but shes been hearding them to the barn for a year now and if i have one missing all i have to do is say dixie go get em and whether its a chicken or goat she wont stop till they come home. I know thats not what they are bred to be, and i was actually gonna get a great pyrenees for a lgd but my jack russell does a heck of a good job and is way cheaper to feed!!
