I am a little crazy about Yorkies [smaller dogs] jumping off furniture. I suppose it depends on the size of the dog. I don't let Calleigh jump from furniture. Their little legs are very breakable. Calleigh has had two surgeries on her left leg and she isn't allowed to jump from anything. She got an ACL tear just taking a walk and interacting with another small dog. I have a friend on here that had an accident when their dog jumped off the couch and broke her leg. I have another friend whose dog is about 10 lbs. Her dog jumps on and off furniture with no problems. I think you have to be extremely careful especially if you own a smaller dog. IMHO.
