>>My friend's got a JRT who isn't interested in the usual JRT things, she's not at all interested in racing, luring, going to ground, nothing of the sort... During competitions, she just sits on the spot, looking at all the others like they're crazy. Are some JRTs just different like that? Or can something be done to capture her interest in these sports?

Yes, of course there are some laid-back JRTs. Some people would give their eyeteeth for one, and instead they have the speedster ones! Maybe she could find someone to trade dogs with!
