Hi I've just joined. We've just purchased an 11 weekold IRN and had him for about 3 weeks now so hes just over 3 moths old. His name is Janu my girls (15 and 12 yrs old) love hime to bits. He used to come on our hand with 'step up' but recently doesn't wnat to do that any more. He started to bite but I'm still trying to get him tame again.
Janu is great fun and my family and I are so please with our little buddy.
I have a few questions which I'll post in the right section.
God bless
Hi to all

Welcome to the forum,
Work through the biting - search for "bluffing" for tips - it'll soon pass.
Looking forward to seeing your pictures!

Hi Janus and welcome.
What colour is your new family member?
Food is a good reward to encourage him step up etc. They can get a bit stubborn but working through to the end result is well worth the effort.
