Answer 2

I'm sad to say that your jack russel, which i am going to name BOB, has been diagnosed with PAPERTERION Disease, you should really take BOB to the vet. i am a fully trained vet, and rarley ever come across with this disease. i recommend lots of doggy treats and belly rubbing, and please take BOB to the vets!!! peace out.

Answer 3

If you want her to stop eating the paper: Watch her when she goes near the paper and when she goes to eat it, say NO, in a firm loud voice, if this doesn't work, clap your hands or make a loud noise! She should relate eating the paper with a nasty noise that she doesn't like!!

I would take her to the vets, or pets at home?! Know it? They have free vet checks, if your concerned about her breathing!!

Answer 4

One of my dogs will steal paper out of my printer given half the chance.  She'll chew and eat any paper that might be lying around, so, much like you would with a small child, I make sure it isn't there for her to eat.

The panting, however, I would be concerned about.  The only person that can give you a proper diagnosis is your vet.  One of my dogs had this problem and it turned out to be heart disease, this may or may not be the case with your dog, but no one on here can tell you for sure.
