Open Question: Okay how to make it easier, my dog gets a scent and wants to track it?

Okay first of all my dog has Jack Russell Terrier/ Chihuahua in her (we know that for sure) but we are under a strong belief that she has Beagle in her as well. She makes that hound howl (that only a hound can do) and she has beagle features (by the way my fathers dog is a beagle so I know about them) We also know she has some lab in her.The thing is I know Terriers and Beagles are hunters but when she picks up a scent she wants to go. Whether it be rabbits or squirles. She is really good with her commands but she is very stubborn (the chi in her) She is really strong and pulls so hard for such a small girl of 22 pounds.She has been through obedience training but how to calm her when she gets on a scent. I expected this but its happening more and more.Any advice so I don’t throw out my shoulder trying to hold her back?also we are always practicing what we learned in class
