Hi this is my first time posting in this topic, I am an AIBU regular, though.
I have a ten year old Jack Russell Terrorist who is profoundly bored and I am running out of ideas to enrich his life. He gets his usual walks and I vary the venues and routes for interest. As we work he has a companion JRT Chihuahua female cross and they are devoted to each other. She is younger than he is. They play a lot and have a good hour when we get home in the evening where they tear up the house. We use beef flavoured bubbles, and play ball, tug and chase with them every day.
But he is still destructive and displays stressed behaviour, pica, licking and random barking fits, he seems just generally miserable a lot. The vet says he has no underlying health issues.
The only time he seems content and sleeps through the night without being disruptive is when he has spent time with a dog chew. But he destroys them ALL.
Any recommendations for one he can't kill in one evening - he is costing me a fortune and is going to make himself ill eating the bits! Perferably one that we can secrete treats in.
