    Yes, I remember. :) Copie and Casino are from the Vinnie and Rex days.

    Brothers: you chose one and DH chose the other. One "ran like a giraffe on crack" Yes?

     

    I am sorry for your recent loss and am glad you still have greys in your house :)

    Nancy and John,

    I am so sorry Albi had to leave. He is one of the feew babies I watched grow up on Greytalk. My heart hurts for you.

    Vinnie left somewhat the same way, so I know how it feels to think you are fighting/treating one thing, and it turns out to be somehing else that can't be fixed.

    Godspeed, Albi...

    Good Thoughts For Skimmie Please

    They can lick through a basket muzzle. I had to tape Jake's.

    If you can't find a tiny bite-not, could you use a wash cloth or a small hand towel and make one like we do for the big boys? I use a towel and duct tape. Works great, but I don't leave them alone while they are wearing them.

     

    Hope all goes well with the tail amp. :)

    Nervous On Walks; Jumping On Sitting Human

    With the walking, I would build it a little at a time. You also don't know... maybe he he has history with a wooded area. If so, you'll have to replace his memories with pleasant ones, a little at a time. Taking cues from Romie and Meg will help as well.

     

    As far as the chair, I would remove him from my lap and work on a "down" with a treat. If he's eager to please and food motivated, he'll catch on quickly. Then you can move straight to the "down" commad.

     

    I've never used squirt bottles on any of the boys. They all liked treats so much, we just used that with commands.

     

    I am thinking Milo is young, and my Jake came to me very young. The exuberance can be trying at times, but Jake is settled most of the time now that he is approaching the ripe old age of 5 ;)
