Is there such a thing?
As you know, I just picked up 2 more chins just this past Sunday. They were both originally from a pet store in Maryland but their previous owner believes the store (family owned, if that matters) said they buy or get chins from a local breeder.
The day these 2 came home, they've been very trusting in me and don't seem to run, especially Spyro. When I picked him out of the carrier to put him in their cage, he just enjoyed being held and didn't squirm or try to get away. I can catch him fairly easily in the cage and he LOVES to be held.
Just before posting this, I had him out of his cage with me sitting on the couch watching TV and he just sat in my arms or on my lap while petting him and he fell asleep in my arms! He didn't try to get away at all and I barely needed to hold him but I did have a hold of the base of his tail incase but I really didn't need to.
This seems like strange chinnie behavior to me because usually they don't like to be held long. Is this just possibly his personality? I don't want to jump to the gun thinking somethings wrong but it just seems so strange only having them for 4 days and he's fine with whatever I do and enjoying my company. He's eating, drinking, pooing normal, normal crazy chin behavior in his cage and while playing outside of his cage in the playpen.
Am I just worrying to much?? He's such a sweetheart like this so i'm hoping i'm just being dumb!
