Hi all....

Now that I am having great success in litter training, In a few weeks, I would like to start bonding my dog, Sara, and my bunny, Tootsie. So, I am looking for some input. My bun is very interested in being \"friends\" with my dog. She is rather comfortable around the dog and is not afraid of her at all. My dog is mild mannered. A BIG baby even though she is 8 yrs old. Since we have gotten the bun, my dog has actually stopped chasing wild rabbits. It\'s the funniest thing. Anyway, although she has stopped chasing wild rabbits (SO CUTE!!), she does not have any interest in our bun. When Tootsie approaches Sara, Sara just looks at her and walks away. Tootsie is constantly approaching Sara and with no avail, Sara leaves. Anyone have any suggestions on how I can get Sara more interested in the bun? Also, any good info on bonding a dog and bunny in general? I\'m excited about successfully litter training so our little Tootsie can be more integrated into the family and now I would like the dog and Bun to bond so they have eachother as well. Anyway, any suggestions would be great!!! Thanks, Julie
take both into a room take treats for your dog. every time the dog shows intreast in the bunny give it a treat. do this for about 30 to 45 min. each day, until your dog shows intreast in your bunny with out a treat.
