Jeanie I wonder all the same things, I don't know her history well or her weight,
how big is Sunni, my last yorkie was border line to small to climb up or down a staircase especially since ours are bare wood.
I know that it is common to have yorkies on furniture even if someone is not sitting with them and that has always baffled me. I have friends that come over with their pups and even though no one is sitting on my couch most of the dogs head for it and several walk across the top of it and my couch sits in the middle of the great room, so it's not even to look out a window. None of my past yorkies or Lola gets on a couch unless my husband or I am sitting on it and none ever got on the bed unless I put them on it at bedtime. Even if Lola was to small to get on the couch on her own, it would only take a second to lift her up, so for me pet stairs would not be necessary. My pups always have their own bed in every room I spend time in so perhaps they don't feel the need to get on the couch. I am in my home office now where there is day bed, Lola is laying next to it in her bed on the floor, which is good because I have work papers scattered all over the bed. Everyone's situation is different so I am curious if many of you have pups sleeping on your bed or couches when no human's are in them. |
