This past week BeeBee passed another milestone in that she’s able to jump off the bed, or rather from the bed to the old bench at the foot of it, to the floor. The steps are still beyond her and it never might happen. However, when I lift her right rear leg now, she automatically puts her right front paw on the next step and then pushes off my hand. If I were willing to do that every step, I wouldn’t have to carry her up any more. Coming down is a different story. She can get down the bottom two, but sometimes that’s more a case of her flinging herself down with wild abandon, something I don’t want her to do from higher up. Right now she’s more interested in Frica’s food in the maternity suite, but I’m sure that will change as the puppies get older. For sure, she appreciates Frica’s increased willingness to interact with her in a more playful manner–at least when BeeBee’s nowhere near the puppies.
