So he shouldn't be trying to sit up and then stand up on his own? Meaning he can walk a little if we stand him up and let him totter around?
We had a pen like that and Moose would do the
same thing- stand on his hind legs for us to get him out and then he resorted to jumping on his hind legs up and down for us to get him out!! I definitely won't use that pen because I don't want to even risk that happening.
