Instructions
Bottle-raise a pet wallaroo, or adopt one that has been bottle-raised. A bottle-raised wallaroo will be much more interested in playing with humans than one who did not have a lot of human interaction as a baby.
Neuter your male wallaroo at a young age if you want him to be a companion rather than a breeding animal. An intact male can be dangerous during breeding season and does not make a good playmate.
Encourage your pet wallaroo's curiosity. Wallaroos are naturally curious creatures and encouraging this trait will make your wallaroo more interested in interacting with you and others. A curious wallaroo will also show you what she is interested in doing and will probably invent games for both of you to enjoy.
Be active with your wallaroo. Your pet may enjoy chase-related games, games with balls or tug-of-war games with sheets or towels. Try out a variety of games with your wallaroo, introducing them slowly until you see what he is most interested in.
Spend quiet time with your wallaroo. Your pet will enjoy snuggling with you. Wallaroos can even make good companions for a night on the couch watching movies.
Discipline your wallaroo gently. If your wallaroo gets carried away during play, give him a firm "no" rather than any sort of physical punishment.
How to Play With a Pet Wallaroo
