After a month of checks from the rescue, they approved me to adopt a 10 year old Jack Russell. We have had him three days and I couldn't fault him. Really lovely dog.
This morning I was sat on the couch, he was sat next to me. My son stroked him and the dog snapped. It was so sudden. The dog did not break the skin but marks are there. I told the dog off and put him in the kitchen immediately. I know he knows he has done wrong as usually he would be barking but he is quiet.
I have really taken to the dog and I'm so taken aback by this, I'm not sure what I should do now. Could anyone help?
