How to properly go up and down stairs. Posted: 4 Months, 2 Weeks ago Karma: 0  
This thread discusses the Content article: How to properly go up and down stairs.

My dog Gracie is a 1yr lab/ sheppherd. She has tripped my 2 1/2 yr old son down the stairs many times. So we finally said no to going up stairs. That is until I found this web site and read this tip. I have been practicing with her, making sure I always finish first. She has improved drastically with just a few trys.
Although I am still uneasy on allowing her on the steps when the kids are around. Do you have any tips on how to impower a 2 1/2 yr old and a 4 yr old?

You could have the children feed the dog, make sure they go thru doorways first. Make sure Grace is in a sit/stay whenever your children are on the stairs.If she won't than I would continue to not aloow her on the stairs.

Depends on the kid but my daughter was able to get her point across but just saying very loudly Noooo!!!! or sometimes she say's HEY! The louder they are I think it may get the point across.
