I know you must be very careful with these little ones jumping. Our sofas that we use are pretty low to the ground. (We use stairs for our bed, because that is pretty high. Jett is too small to even use the stairs to get into bed at this point, it is still a bit of a reach for him. Just really wondering if most little ones eventually can make it to a short couch???
Bella will sit over the edge and I could swear she is saying, na ni na ni boo boo at him.......

As he boings at the edge........sigh...

As the owner of a 3 lb. Yorkie who dislocated a shoulder that would not heal, I urge you to get a set of stairs or a ramp for your babies to use as they are too small to put that much stress on such tiny and unstable joints as these very small dogs have as the result of improper breeding practices. My tiny baby had a stairs to use for the couch and the bed and still her tiny shoulder joint could not take the stress of all the jumping she did.
If you want to protect your dogs as much as possible and want to save thousands in vet bills, endless hours nursing them, casting/surgery, vet trips and heartache and pain, get them some way not to jump at all, preferably a ramp and corral their jumping as much as possible. |
