I would love to start taking ShotGun to schools for younger kids, to old folks homes, to kids who need hospice etc.
What should I do to get him ready for this? Any advice would be great please.
The only thing I might have a problem with this is when he takes a treat from your hand he tends to not be aware of fingers heheh. He just bites the food and although he isnt aggressive about food he does tend to do this. Not being mean or aggressive, he just bites down for the food and sometimes nips the palm of my hand. Any suggestions to help stop this or is it even possible?
Also, since I don't want him getting sick from all the kids etc, what shots should he be getting? He will be gelded sometime next month before it gets hot, so I want the vet to get him utd on everything.
He has never kicked at me or any of the grandkids, adopted kids or actually anyone. He has kicked at the dogs for chasing him or the goats for butting at him, so don't think that would be a problem. But will make very sure he is ready for so much attention
What kind of insurance should I have to cover him and liabilty? Will it also cover him while being trailered to and from?
If I am accepted by CMHR as a rescue/foster home I would also love to have any mini I may care for trained to be able to do this if they are able.
So many little ones need to have and to share their love with each other. The kids to be able to hug the minis and the minis to be loved and hugged on.
Any suggestions, ideas, advice, training tips would be wonderful.
Thank you!
