Only Dewey can't jump on the couch. He has the shortest little legs. I block off the chairs because they're higher than the couch . I wouldn't !t care if they couldn't jump, but they do so I try to make it as safe as possible. Be happy that she can't so you don't have to worry about her getting hurt .

Daisy and Sadie are 2 and 1/2. Daisy is my jumper, she is the smaller of the two at 5 1/2 pounds. Sadie can jump if she needs to, but prefers to be picked up. Neither of the two jump on or off the bed because it is to high. I recently bought stairs, but have not put them together yet.

Pipper just thinks he can't jump onto the couch. He stands there jumping up and down like a jack in the box but he just goes straight up and down. He hasn't figured out how to land on the couch. He jumps off with no problem. I wish he wouldn't.

lol

love this post.

Mia has really short legs. She takes a running start since she was tiny, (remember we had her at 6 weeks) She would smack right into the front of the furniture! It scared us at first but she figured it out! But to this day she still has horrible timing and will on occasion still miss her timing. She never has a problem jumping off of anything and we wish she would not because she has no fear of anything no matter how high she is.
