but… but… where is the training? All I heard vas how to make your funiture smell like shit by filling it up with vinigar!
There are way too many pellets in the rabbit’s cage, and I don’t see timothy hay or a litter box. Also, pine or cedar? shavings and rabbits don’t mix – if ingested, it can be deadly to rabbits. In addition, the cage is way too small. If you want to help people care for their pet rabbits, please learn the basics first, and present them in your videos in an environment that is healthy for them
I understand that she mentions using negative reinforcement for the chewing but positive reinforcement is the real way to train your bunny to do tricks and use a litter box. This video was not really about training your rabbit… just encouraging them not to chew.
@feonabunny you’re so right. on top of that this video wasn’t about rabbit training… rather rabbit proofing.
spraying them with water isnt such a good idea to me it can frighten them when my rabbit does something wrong i gently tap it on the nose (because mine is not fond of that) and say no and he knows not to do that anymore i tried spraying with water and he got scared and he wouldnt come near me
@takoda2007 shes right about the things she is saying you know WAY too much pellets and everything else she has said is true
feonabunny is right
i have the same rabbit(the white one)..what is the name of those?
omg the bunnies r so cute r they dwarf rabbits if yes i’m SOO getting one
Shut up feona and stop being such a critic. If you know so much about rabbits, what are you doing watching a rabbit training video??
