Handling questions


How basic as other than taking her out and letting her round around
in her playpen, or in between my legs while my feet are next to the
wall and she runs between them, what "hands on" handling does one do
to keep them tame? (She does not like the ball.) She is pretty tame
and does not bite.I don't want to always feed her when she is out,
or is that what they like? You can "pet" her even when she is eating.
I was just wondering what else people do, when I read they "handle"
their pet for "X" number of minutes a day. Thanks for any
suggestions!Lucille & Skeeter

I try to get Miles out of his "apartment" at least once a day for some play time. I usually just hold him and let him climb on me or on the bed, couch, or...

They say to handle them 20 minutes a day to keep them tame. If she doesnt bite then hold her and pet her as much as possible. If she lets you reach in her...
