Hi all,
I have had Turok for about 5 months now, and he is still scared of me and my brother.
We never use force, never hit him, never even yelled at him. However, we did buy him from a pet shop (my country doesnt have breeders yet) and I think the constant touching grabbing and possibly abuse has made him lose all trust in us humans.
I really do love him and it pains me to say this but we have a child in the house and its only a matter of time for a nasty bite to occur (he bites us aswell if we dont try to SLOWLY take him)
And all of this after 4 months.
I have been offered to give him away to a family I do not know. I really don’t know what to do.
Please help.
PS: We have been very patient with him. Hes fine on our shoulders he calms down alot, but hes extremely afraid of hands. AND HE WILL BITE HARD.
Which means no scritches, almost little to no playing. He sort of just sits there silently doing nothing all day.
What should I do?
