Is Lolli on supplements like cosequin or dasuquin? It's actually a good thing to moderately exercise them on level ground (if it's vet approved), but probably not a good thing to have them bend their knees repetitively...so a ramp is recommended.

We live on the 2nd & 3rd floors, it's a condo but much like an apt. The parking lot is on the 1st floor, so it's actually the 3rd & 4th floors, so we need to go down 4 flights of stairs. We do have an elevator, but I like taking the stairs for exercise. They fly up & down the stairs lolll, I have to walk very fast to catch up w/them. 1st 2 parts are carpeted & the bottom 2 are cement w/anti slip thingies on it. It's not backless, those stairs would make me nervous.
Momo is the only one w/Grade 1 LP on 1 knee, the others have good knees. He's never limped or favored a leg & he does very well going up & down steps/stairs. I only give him 1/2 of a cosequin once a week for maintenance.
