Maxine could jump on the couch at about a year, but has not done it for the past few years as she is nearing 13. Not sure how she ever made it up there with those very short legs. We have always been lifting her up, and down. She can still go up and down stairs, but not on the bed, she is lifted on and off.
Until they develop, I would keep the jumping to a minimun as their bones are thinner than a Chicken Wing! I did the same for my large Dog, which was quite a challenge, but he was taught from day one he stays off of all furniture and beds. He has his own beds throughout the house. About 7 in all. |
