Title: flying saucer
Post by: mbaker1238 on February 19, 2009, 07:59:04 PM

does anyone have any suggestions on how to teach a chin to use the flying saucer? its taking her forever. she just looks at it and hides behind it.

Sometimes it can take up to 6 months for them to learn. As far as I know there is no set 'way'. You could try putting a bit of a raisin on there but most likely your chin would find a way to get it off without even touching the saucer. :::grins::
Just give her time. As soon as she learns I bet you'll never get her off there.

So true, Jenova!  If you search past posts, Nemue has many hilarious ones about her two chins, Cheech and Chong.  It took one of my girls a year to figure it out, another one, two days...go figure.
