Awesome Kenny!!! Cooper will be loving his walks in no time at all & will literally jump into his harness!! :th_biggrin:
Roscoe never tried to chew on his harness while outside. He was too mesmerized by all the new things to see. He was a bear to get it past his busy beak while putting it on tho. I need to start back trying to get him to wear it.

Kenny - That is awesome news! Keep up that training and make sure to harness him regularly to keep him used to it. :D

okay. im acually on my computer now. so here is the story
i was just relaxing in my room with cooper on his atom. and right next to the atom is the shefl where i keep a lot of his treats and stuff. and the harness was there too. so he managed to climb over onto the shelf and when i noticed, he was standing right next to the harness without even noticing. so then i though, oh my god, lets try it on. and thats all. we got it on (with a bit of a struggle and a few bites, only one bad one) and took him for a walk!
i took him again just a few minutes ago and he was great! he seems less nervous about being outside than yesterday. hopefully he keeps improving!
This is wonderful news! Was he easier the second time?

he was a bit easier the second time, but not much, and same with the third, today he was a bit easier, but not much. im just happy, 1, he is wearing it at least, and 2, i have only gotten one bite than actually was bleeding. what would you guys recommend for his chewing? just ignoring it? or correcting/stopping him when he tries to chew.
