No chance I would ever let anyone take one of mine without me. no matter what, issues or not issues.

If you think he can handle him and you trust he'll take the precautions to prevent anything bad from happening, than I don't see why not.

I don't know Bamm or Josh enough to answer that question really :/ but I would go with your gut.
Yes, he's your husband, but if it's an issue of Bamm's safety and/or you think he might bite someone.. I would be pretty wary as well.

Do you think Bamm would/could bite someone/are they going somewhere where people could show up? That would be my only real issue in a situation like this. Because regardless of you being there or not, if he bites someone and that person reports it got forbid..that could be a big issue.

I ended up deciding to let him take him.

Mainly for a few reasons. The guy that Bamm has never met ended up not being able to make it so that was no longer a concern. That was my biggest concern overall. Josh can handle Bamm. There have been issues in the past with Bamm and Josh... mainly Josh getting up from a couch suddenly or something and Bamm rushing up at him. Josh has been doing a LOT of his training the past few months mainly to help build up a little bit more of a bond between them two and that has helped tremendously. My husband has really been trying to make it work especially since oddly out of our dogs Bamm is his favorite. Bamm has slowly been starting to bond more with Josh.

They had fun, but they ended up coming home early. He did end up taking a tent afterall and said his back started hurting and Bamm was cold even when he was curled up next to Josh on a wool blanket so he came home in the middle of the night.

I'm glad the two got a chance to hang out, even if it didn't end up being a totally pleasant trip.

To bad they had to come home early but at least they did get a chance to "bond." There's always next summer to look forward to. I bet Bamm is exhausted. Did they get any pictures?
