Rufus new harness

This Thursday I decided to let Rufus try on his new harness for the first time, since he's now three months old, the earliest recommended age to start harness training.

Look how handsome he is.

Yes, pink harness, not very masculine but it fits to his eyes:lol:

Had to get a treat for behaving so nicely.
Since he didn't seem bothered I took him out to run a short while.
I haven't dared to let them into the run since his brother escaped two weeks ago, so he had to get some time out of the hutch somehow.

Meeting mom, Rufus looks like a ghost in this:lol:

And dad, who wasn't so happy about seeing him...

And here he meets Zakura.

Adding a video of him as well, I let the lead go a few times so it wouldn't yank him when he ran, but most of the time I'm holding it up, trying to keep it from twisting around his leg...which it still did once, but it got corrected quite fast.
