#7 Jack Russell Terrier

Despite their size, Jack Russell Terriers are highly energetic because they were bred for fox hunting. Setting limits at a young age is the best way to approach stopping violent behavior in your Jack Russell Terrier. You are their “pack leader” because you are their owner. Thus, by acting in a dominant manner, you can probably stop your dog from trying to overthrow the pack hierarchy.
