so I am assuming he will he come down them yet, that took Lola much longer than going up. My stairs are wood and slippery. It was a pain because she had the run of the house before she could come down the stairs on her own. She liked being on the upper landing since it is open like a balcony and there is a big window that she could see a lot of our street from. the moment I would turn my back or go out side to water plants or something she would head right up there. So I started blocking them with a baby gate and bolster. Now she runs up and down like crazy, her big thing is dropping her toy down the stairs, she loves to see it thump down a riser at a time. She will not do our basement stairs though and they are actually safer, but not finished, so when I go down there, she lays at the top with her paws and face hanging over the top step and then drops her toy down a few steps and wines until I bring it back up for her. Also be careful once your dog masters up or down he will follow you and get in between your feet, I have come close to getting tripped or pushing her off the step. Both she and my last dog have missed a step and rolled down them, so I try very hard not to have her follow me to closely or run down them to fast if the doorbell rings.
