idk im scared my chin wil bite...i wanna get him and pet him..but im scared it will bite =[=[=[=[
They didn't happen overnight. I rushed Flea, mistook his early willingness to not run away as permission to handle him, and it took forever to gain his trust back. I have had him for over 2 years now and he still gets nervous if I move too quickly with him.thanks =] its cause i see all these stories about you gguys chins and makes want to have that bond
Edgar, haven't you been advised on a couple of threads now that you should wait and get to know your chin more, and let him get to know you before you try and pet him. You really do have to be patient. I promise it will pay off. Sit next to his cage, talk to him, read to him. Give him time to get used to his new environment and to you. Once he is comfortable with you, bring your hand to him, but don't try to pet him. Let him be in control of the bonding. Give him an apple treat. Show him your hand has something fun to chew on. I think it took a month or so before my chin started letting me near her. But I gave her the lead, and now she is a total sweetheart. Patience and he will be your best friend before you know it.
