Learning How to Navigate Stairs...



So another thing we neglected to consider in bringing our 2 nuggets from Australia was the fact that they each had very little experience with stairs. We found this out straightaway as we opened the door to let them into their new home, only to have Taffy go flying down the basement steps, so much so that he basically had to jump off the steps to the floor below to avoid falling into a wall at the bottom....so yeah, this was our first 'a-ha moment' concerning the dogs and stairs. It was pretty nerve-racking the first week or so, mainly for us, fearing that the dogs would surely break their necks going down the stairs, but they have learned to go s-l-o-w-l-y down them, well most of the time! And wouldn't you know it, Taffo seems to fall up the stairs on occasion...ah, ya gotta love em!
