Just wanted to say hi and congratulations. I personally would ignore advice like that from my vet...lol...and start training anyway, understanding things will change as his body matures, but I'd at least start setting the habits immediately. Consistency is key to success...and in his case, treats may be the clincher. lol
I (and DH) ride also although I (we) have not collected all the gear necessary to take Brody and Mia on the motorcycle(s) yet...but we are thinking they might like it...they love going places. I know lots of dogs ride with their Mommies and Daddies...and love it. We plan to start ours out on very short rides to see if they like it...we don't want to scare them, but if they want to ride with us, we want to gradually slide them into it...we don't want them to become frightened. They were over 1 year old before we got them, so we missed the opportunity to start them as little'uns.
Glad to hear your Yorkie gets on well with your larger baby...who shares the same good name as my DH's late Rott(en)/Pitt...Mommy's baby, of course! lol So cool that sweet Loki and baby Ryder are so similarly colored...for now, at least...makes for a really cool photo!
Again, congratulations! Take care. |
