Decided maybe a ramp would have better result. Researching and seeing how expensive these things can be, I came across a DIY for these things. DIY Indoor Pet Ramp - My Repurposed Life?
It looks really easy to construct for anyone. Hope this will be helpful for those who have super furbutts that thinks they're super yorkies. 
If anyone's interested, I'll post a picture of the one I make. |
I posted about this exact same thing several times, I was sorry I introduced the stairs to help her get on my bed which is high, she never once used them to go down she just kept jumping, before the steps I would lift her on the bed at night and lift her off in the morning, never once did she jump off until we got the steps. Then she started accessing the bed whenever she wanted and I found her on my nightstand several times, I put an end to it in less than a month and things returned to normal. Lola is large enough to jump on the couch, but frankly I wish she could not. I much prefer her to only get on things on my terms not hers. If your pup can not get on the couch why encourage her to, if you are there you can pick her up, if you are not there then IMO she should stay on the floor in a bed or pillows. I have lots of beds so Lola never even thinks to go on the couch unless we are sitting on it.
