         So right now Im working on teaching them to come up in my lap and put their paws on my shouder (aka a hug )  so far its going really well, I say mommy hug? and  sophie jumps right up on my lap and has started doing it on her own, Cady has caught on a bit but still grudgingly does it if a craisin is involved.  Just excited about my little monsters learning something new!

          Congrats! That sounds so cute! How are you going about teaching them? I keep thinking I ought to get a clicker training book for Hodari. She likes to plan out how she’s going to run through the obstacle courses which I set up for her every few hours in different configurations. It helps keep her active and stimulated, but I think she’d enjoy learning some tricks too. That’s great that Sophie picked up on “mommy hugs” so quickly and likes to give them! What a sweetheart! I guess Cady just doesn’t like to feel manipulated.

            I make the buns come up for kisses so they can get their treat in the morning. I’m so awful! Unfortunately, it’s me kissing them and not the other way around.

              We have to take the bunny lovins’ and way we can get it. I sit on the floor when I give out raisins/craisins and the buns will stand up on my legs to get their treats. Thumper always licks my palms where the raisins were. I love his sweet kisses.

                That’s sweet!

                I tried to get Lolli to climb in my lap tonite to get her treat. I got growled at. LOL Of course, I had just finished brushing her so she wasn’t too happy to begin with.
