| Mature, Lazy, or Spoiled? Angelo is just a baby. I'd expect him to be extra hyper and mess with everyone. He does that sometimes but mainly all he wants is to be on me. I sit on the couch and he starts whining and jumps up and down til I pick him up. Then he lays on me...it's cute but I read something about not letting him on the furniture...should I stop that? |

| That doesn't have to be a problem. Up to you whether you care he's on furnitur, but be careful not to let him jump down off things. Could hurt himself.

| It's great that you have these concerns for your furry friends. I did read somewhere on YT that a ramp would be better for our babies. I'm gonna try to get my DH to build one for us. Just a thought!! |

| I have blankets on the furniture and have taught mine they can go one anything with a blanket. For the couch and beds, I bought ramps and stairs so they would not jump off. They took too both very quickly and use them all the time. I ordered the steps and ramps from Chris at topdogsteps@mchsi.com The steps were $35; and the ramp was $55. They have cute dog paw prints on the carpet. He sent them fedex and charged real shipping fees. He has them listed on ebay - you can look for items by seller topdogsteps or email him directly. Attached a pic of the ramp and stairs (with Abby on them). I had Chris add the side rails to the ramp. |

| When Gracie was a puppy she always wanted to be on my lap. Now she is an adult and she still wants to be on my lap! I think there are two reasons. 1. Yorkies have thin coats and get chilly very easily, especially when they are babies. 2. They are little cuddle bugs, lap dogs and just love their people. It has to be at least 85 degrees for Gracie to want to sit away from a human. She want to be in on everything that is going on. I think she feels she is part of the family and is insulted if we would not include her in all our activities...including watching a movie. |
