bronze Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 We I stuck one on her but I'm not sure. Proud of myself though because I did it on my own. Anyway the reason I'm not sure its because its been 20 minutes and she can't seem to pick anything up. Could it be too big for her because shes only a mini? Anyway I tried pushing it back more in her mouth like the diagram showed but that just leaves her catching flies So I pushed it forward again and have left it like that She keeps shaking her head like a dog with a rat or when theyve got a cone collar on. Shes moped around a lot. I've never seen her all hunched like that before and now I can see shes tootled off to the egly. No idea whether its to lay or just to sulk or hide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted May 10, 2007 Author Share Posted May 10, 2007 I did it about an hour ago and shes still in the glu. Off to check Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paola Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 I thought that the forward position was the correct way of wearing them, as they can still eat but not pull feathers I am no expert Sounds like she is sulking, am sure she will soon come round. Maybe worth tempting her out of her sulk with some treats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Forward is the right way Hon. Like Paola says, try her with some treats; she must feel a bit out of sorts with it until she gets used to having a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Prada's ring does slip from forward to back sometimes but as soon as she goes to peck something off the ground it falls forward again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted May 10, 2007 Author Share Posted May 10, 2007 Well she was in there for a good couple of hours but she did lay. Shes now prancing around as much as normal. I think shes eating shes definitely trying. I'm going to keep an eye on Betty to see if she improves as that will show if its working or not.
