Hi there. Jazzy is very cute! Unfortunately, it's hard to give much advice without knowing what specific situations tend to trigger this behavior. Feel free to post again with a more detailed description of your concerns, if you like - we would be happy to try and make some general suggestions. For more specific help, I would strongly recommend getting in touch with a veterinary behaviorist who can evaluate him in person and help you put together a detailed plan to work on the problem.
