I know a women who allowed her new pup at 15 weeks of age to stay on the recliner alone and of course she jumped and broke her leg and dislocated her hip. Poor gal had to have surgery to repair it.
Leaving a pup at any age alone on the furniture is never ever a good idea. Accidents happen and they being so attached to their humans will jump in order to be with them. My pups are larger Yorkies and I use to allow our pups on the furniture but not much any more. I just don't want to take the chance of them getting hurt. They are only allowed on one chair and only when they are sitting with us. They also have one chair that they can get on any time, its a chair that has a stool to help them on and off.
