Hello everyone, I want to start out by thanking everyone who responded to my question about collars. I purcahsed Al a new leather collar and hee seems to enjoy this one very much, it seems to be a bit more fun to carry around than the nylon collar he had. On to my questions, children (the human kind). I have a nephew that is a bit younger than Al (a little over a year) and they seem to get along great I don't leave these two together and they see each other only occasionally when I go over to my brothers place for dinner. But when I take Al out for walks in the apartment area where I live the kids all want to see him. Al seems ok with this for the first few minutes, but then gets a bit shy and tries to hide in my shirt (he has never bitten anyone, and I'm protective). Which brings me to my first barrage of questions: Could exposing him to more children who are a bit more controlled help get him over this? What about just a couple of children or only one child instead of a horde? My second question is concerning Ferret dreams. The other night an I was woke up by Al screaming from a night mare. This was an all together unpleasent Thanks in advance, Mike Michael Yoder | "No one can hear you | Systems Operational Support (5-4636) | Scream in | Hayden Library rm 109 | Cyber-Space" | [log in to unmask] | | [Posted in FML issue 1108]
