Awesome advice! Within three lessons I was able to train my Eva to follow my hand into a carrying case (which previously terrified her), stand up on command, etc. I think she recognized the sound of the box of treats opening more than any verbal commands, though, lol!. Very informative DM Debbie Ducommum for me has become a trusted rat expert. I will happily seek out all her knowledge as someone who has grown so in love with my rat that I can't imagine a time when I will ever live without one.. "Debbie Does it Again" according to Debra Floyd. I can't say enough about the wonder of pet rats (they are my favorite pets of all time!) and of the wonderful Debbie Ducumon, who not only writes the best books on these fabulous creatures, but is also warm and accessable (she once answered the phone when I called with an emergency (no vets seem to know what to do with rats, which I find extremely strange and sad), and she answered by concerns perfectly. Didn't seem at all put out that a stranger would call her. God Bless the Rat Lady and her SpazRatz!
