LP can get worse. You want to preserve her joints as much as you can. Walking is good for her but you don't want to over do it. Going up and down steps is a movement that does cause more stress on the knees and in particular the connective tissue that your dog really needs. Things like jumping and doing stairs are things that can cause damage to a dog with LP. If it was two or three steps maybe she would be OK doing them now and then but three stories is too much.
