I do this so they are getting affection, chewing, and learning to sit in my hands while I control an activity. Sometimes I brush or comb, cut nails but I often hold them to get some of the good chewing going so that they are more content with their toys. I tie old socks to "very specific" places for them to tug on and have a routine time that they get to run through boxes with toys and balls. By providing routines, they seem to be chewing on more appropriate stuff. I hope this adds to your choice of things to work with your new little sweetheart. From the look of her, I think her ears will be both up soon. Have fun. |
Thank you for the advice!! Lately I've been getting concerned about her biting habits. She is SUCH a rascal and bites a bit too hard sometimes. I don't want it to become a problem. It's cute now...but later on it probably won't be so cute
