Remington's Steep Accomplishment!
Let's just say our stairs are quite steep!!!
Ever since Remington came home with us he has been a tad bit scared of those stairs to say the least. When we went up the stairs we carried him up... when we went down the stairs we carried him down. Soon he conquered the long climb up after working with him for weeks to get his confidence level up... but going down was a whole different story! We started by putting him on the second step from the bottom and letting him go down and we worked upwards... but still he just wasn't quite sure about those darn stairs... I was beginning to think that I would have to carry a 60+ pound dog down the stairs eventually!
Anyways, a few nights ago Remington surprised Dan and I! He went down those steep stairs like he had been doing it for weeks! You would have thought he jumped in a river to save a drowning child when you saw how proud of him we were! He got so many hugs and kisses from us it was ridiculous! Then he ran up and down those steps like 3 different times, one right after another as if to say "Look Mom and Dad, I can do it!" What a sweetie! We are soooo darn proud of him!
