This might need to go in the Lab Chat section but I'm not sure so I'll put it here?
I really want a rabbit. or two.
But a friend of ours has one and when we take Milly there she is so utterly consumed by the creature that it's a bit difficult. She won't leave the rabbit hutch alone, she wants to play with it, it stresses the rabbit out and all her training falls on deaf ears.
So is there any point getting one? Has anyone successfully gotten a rabbit/guinea pig/ferret/hamster etc... with their dog? Obviously the rabbit hutch will be outside and Milly generally has free roam of the backyard while we are at work unless it is pouring rain and awful conditions and then she is left inside.
I worry that we'll come home from work and have a bit of a disaster on our hands. But I also think she's just interested in the rabbit because it's all new and different and maybe she'll 'get over' the excitement after awhile if it's around 24/7 ??
Yes? or am I just stupid to even consider it?
Your help is appreciated!
