My roo would go after my feet if i was wearing my red crocs. He seemed only threatened by the red shoes because he would come up and hang out on the deck rail every morning and let me pick him right up...a bit of disconnect with anything not at eye level. Anyhow, I would grab him and hold him upside down on the ground for a few minutes right there, or spray him with water if it was available at that moment. He learned pretty quick.
