Actually, I've seen some really, really tame prairie dogs. But you're right purrley, they're probably a real challenge to domesticate. However, if the pd is use to having her food provided for her, I'm wondering if she'll know how to "hunt" for her food. Would she be able to adapt back to the wild?

Caitlin, this is a toughie! I guess, I would advise trying to handle her everyday as much as possible, without stressing the two of you out. Karen was right when she said that some animals--no matter how much they love you--just do not like to be held.

Have you looked up any internet resources? I'll try and find some sites later today. If I find any, I'll be sure to post them.

Good luck to you and your pd!
