Do you just try to shoe him out the door? And say go play? I think I remember that Opo weighs a bit. My Saphire is just a little rock.Right now I can't pick up Opo. It's been about 2 or 3 weeks now. He is to big to use one hand. With the sore on the other I can't put my prosthetic arm on. Good thing my wife comes to the rescue.
