Blessings from Ohio…

That’s cute.

But don’t despair. Even if she does turn out to be a wuss at taking stairs, it doesn’t mean that she won’t be a fierce guard dog.

I’ve come to realize that people who are considered “fearless” really aren’t so in all aspects of their lives. My young 4-year-old niece, whom I always considered somewhat timid, had no problems with the kiddie roller coaster while her so-called “fearless” older cousin, who had to be fished out of the lake three times before he realized that it could be dangerous to just walk into the lake off the dock, wouldn’t set foot in it at first. It was only after she survived two trips that he decided that the roller coaster might be worth a try.

I never considered that traveling all alone as a teen might be fearsome; just don’t get me anywhere where I might injure myself or get sick, like on a roller coaster. :flying:

I have to laugh, I’m sure she’ll get the hang of the steps soon enough. She is awefully cute though.

It looks like Coco has made great progress as far as climbing the steps goes! :thumbsup:

Looking at the pics of her actually trying to climb a step she still has a way to go for the stairs. Once she gets comfortable going up (and you can see she struggles a little) she will get the hang of going down. I would give it a month more before she has grown enough to do it comfortable. After that leave her upstairs and then go sit at the bottom. And even if she was to guard the goats I would probably still be having her on her back across my lap for a belly rub. Yeah I did that with my husky and he plops down when he can for a belly rub every night.

Too funny. Eventually she will gallop down those stairs.

I could not resist that cute baby face. Good luck on the stairs!

I think she’ll get the hang of those steps soon. She’s still just a pup and the big wide world is probably spooking her. I bet she gets some confidence when she’s in Admiral’s presence. They grow up fast when another dog teaches them the ropes. xxoo

I’ve decided against a working dog, because all I have to herd at my house is a 2 yr old cat and the officially retired 18 yr old Jack Russell terrier. And I probably won’t get another terrier, too high maintenance on grooming though hubby wouldn’t turn down a free wire-haired terrier (his childhood dog) and I wouldn’t turn down a Westie or a Cairn (my childhood favorite dog). So I think this leaves us with a German Shepherd (love ‘em), an Irish Wolf Hound (lazy and love to be big lap dogs), some sort of hunting dog that’s laid back, a beagle, a cocker or some mild mannered mut. No yappie small dogs allowed. A standard poodle would be OK but they require frequent trips to the beauty shop. And painted toe nails. If the readers have suggestions… send to me on my blog (click my name). I’ll post this there and you can comment on it. THANKS!

Coco’s secret is safe with me.
