Thanks everyone for your suggestions. When we first got Roxi, my intention was to never allow her on beds or furniture...that way we wouldn't need to worry about her jumping or falling off. So far she seems scared to even try to jump off--just barks and whines until someone puts her down. But when she started finding her own way up, I decided I needed to get her something. I think she will probably be OK with the stairs (as long as they are the ones for small pets). I think I might improvise first using items that I already have in the house to see if she will use a ramp or stairs before I invest in purchasing either. Someone told me that the money you save in food by having a Yorkie is spent on all the other items needed...portable playpen, stroller, carrier, xpen, potty pads, etc. But my daughter and I love her dearly and are so happy with our decision to get a Yorkie. I even took her to work with me last week (thus the need for the portable playpen) and now my coworkers have decided that Friday's are Yorkie Day
(2 of my other coworkers own Yorkies also). Thanks again everyone.
