Please don't let fear rule your decisions. Your fear will rub off on the dog. Believe they can do anything, and they will surprise you and do everything! Your confidence will help them be confident too. |
I forgot to add congratulations on your new baby. I did not mean to imply you should not take her out once she is a big girl and has had all her shots. Buster loves car rides, visiting, and has flown from California to Massachusetts twice so they are quite the outgoing big dogs in a little package. I agree that they should be treated like dogs and not stuffed animals/purses but you have to be careful when they are so young and have not developed their full immunity.
Enjoy your new little girl.
