[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These are good suggestions. Also, do your steps end onto a hardwood floor? If so, he may feel shaky on the landing. If you don't already have a rug or area rug on the landing, try putting one there. It made a world of difference for our shepherd when he started having the same problems. Good luck, OP! [/quote] OP, both steps and floor are hardwood. He has actually crashed into the wall a few times at the bottom. We all thought it was funny at the time, since he's always been a tad clumsy since a young puppy--but I don't want him to hurt himself or have increasing anxiety about stairs. I'm going to call the vet, and I also just looked at some no-slip strips for the stairs online. If anyone has any specific recs for strips, please post. Thanks, all![/quote]
