Not upset, and I do understand the danger, but to me its know thy dog. They'll never be left alone, but Mae isnt a typical dog. Do I know one day we could have an issue, yes, but I also know I am less then a foot away and I know Mayhem's reaction time to things and I'm comfortable with my...

While I do relize that. I also know Mae has been around reptiles and small animals her entire life and is my service dog. I have to be able to trust her. If I go down and Shake is I do know Mayhem won't hurt him and does listen to vocal commands with no issue. It is a know your dog thing. I also...

I should say the two are NEVER alone together. I trust Mayhem, but **** happens. I'm always right there.

Has anyone else's dog and tort bonded? Mayhem and Shakespeare ADORE each other. If Shake isn't in his tank where you find one you will find the other. Outside, inside, anywhere. We've been to photo shoots, expos, the park... and Mae carries Shake most the trip. She is his personal playground and...

As much as I trust Mae I wouldn't leave them alone. To many what ifs! But I enjoy that they interact so well :) It is a FB video, lol sorry!

He seems to be doing really well on it, but I wanted to check! That makes me feel MUCH more at ease! Shakespeare is my first little guy, and I want to do right! So I keep reminding myself to suck it up and ASK QUESTIONS for his sake! Tom do you think the 110 gallon is okay? Or Should I move my...

Okay, Shakespeare is 6 months old and I have him in a 110 gallon tank for the time being. As substrate I have just coco coir, now I've had a few friends who have had tortoises in the past tell me I need to mix it with something? Should I be? If so what? Trying to do right by my little guy...

Update: its safe to say... he eats fine now! Lol. (the lamp in back was ONLY there for the photo since I moved the heat lamp a second to get the photo!)

Shakespeare came from Riparian Farms. I knew what I was getting when I bought him and Richard sold him to me at a great price. My boyfriend has a rescue Sulcata, he adopted at 6 (Phil is now 9) and neither of us have ever dealt with a hatchling before. He's now eating, had a good day outside...

He is in a 40gallon breeder, coco coir substrate, I had the hot spot at 102 during the day today, cool side was at 83 hot side of the tank was at 92 (I kept taking the temp gun to check) - I do have a night heat bulb in (its black) is that okay? No coil Bulbs. Several hides are avilible and...

That makes me feel SO much better! I have my set up as close to what I could get to what Tom suggested in the hatchling thread, and plan to soak him daily, and once it gets warm again (Texas weather is WEIRD) he'll have daily outside time too :) I just wasn't sure how worried I should be about...

Shakespeare was overnighted to me and came around 10am this morning. He is a 6 month old with some shell abnormalities, he's lopsided and lumpy, but healthy! I soaked him 20 minutes on his when he got here, his eyes look fine, he's moving some (seems a LITTLE timid)... my main worry he...
