I’m not sure I understand what it is about this behavior that is disturbing to you. It’s not destructive, it’s not particularly annoying. Do you just feel that you need to control everything your dog does? And what do you mean, “his house”? You don’t let him live with you? That’s a lousy way to treat a companion animal, especially a pack animal like a dog.

Your dog has opinions about the way he wants to live. He doesn’t want his blanket inside his doghouse; he doesn’t want to stay in his house.

Jack Russell terriers are very smart, very willful dogs. You really need to learn about dog psychology, because if you don’t train them, they will train you; and if you don’t understand how and why your dog thinks, you’ll wind up with a monster on your hands.
