My husband said she was on the bed this morning and Toby was on the floor barking to get on the bed so Speedy jumped off the bed, ran around to the stairs and went up them. No luck....Toby kept barking so she jumped off the bed again, ran around to the stairs and went up them again. Still no luck. My husband said finally the third time she did this Toby went up the steps. She was actually teaching him how to go up the steps. Now we just need to teach both of them how to go down them. That will be the real test. Thanks for all the suggestions. I think we are good to go.

I have had to cut Toby's treats and eating habits way back because of his LP so it looks like I will have to train him to come down the steps with bites of treats!
Too cute with Speedy teaching Toby. Just make sure his isn't jumping down.
