[Maximo]

I agree with everyone above who recommends stairs and ramps. My boys are larger, 9 pounds, and I still don't want them jumping off beds or out of the car. They have strong knees/legs, no LP, but Yorkies have notoriously fragile legs.

Also important, the impact on the spine when jumping. My boys have both had scary muscle strains in the neck, shoulders, back area. I wish they wouldn't jump off the couch because I know the impact isn't good for them.

Stairs and ramps!
