I want our baby to be extra good... We have been working with him daily. When mommy gets rinsed off we often will get him wet too. We've been rubbing and touching all over, on his legs, his ears, his belly, his neck, etc. What I need to know is basic time frames, like what is 'too' soon to actually bathe him and is it too soon to start messing with him with the clippers. He already halters very nicely and stands for the vet and when we flyspray him. When can we start teaching him to lead? Oh yeah, he's also being really good about moving away from pressure. He doesn't mind us toweling him off, or petting him when he's laying down.
By the way, he's 6 days old. Have we moved too fast? Also, we won't do all this at once we usually only work in 10 - 20 minutes sessions, usually closer to 10 minute.
One other question. When he intentionally backs his cute little brown butt up to us and kicks AT us, what should we do? Or, for anything intentionally rude or mean, should we correct him?
