Cody likes to jump on and off the bed!!! Is this safe?!?! or should I get puppy steps?!?! I just get so nervous when he jumps off!

How big is your baby? My Bailey is 6 lbs - we placed ottomans in the family room - instead of doggie steps - and she uses them to get on/off our furniture. Our bed is really high - so she doesn't jump off of it. Or rather, she did once and has never since.

Personally, if your baby wants to jump off the bed, I would get it some steps or an ottoman.

Good luck!

My little Chloe is 2.5 pounds, and jumped off once, and we thought she was badly hurt.

Thankfully she wasnt!!! So if I were you, I would get steps or something so he can get on and off as he pleases.

If Cody if is at risk of hurting himself , than get steps for him.

I use ramps by the beds for my girls since I think it is best for their little legs.

How do you stop them????? I put a ramp by the sofa but Laddy ignores it and goes to the other end of sofa and jumps

I am always on the alert trying to stop him but sometimes when he is sleeping and I get up to go to the restroom etc. I look up and there he is. Jumped off again!!!!
