Big Step

We've had Tucker for roughly 2 weeks.  In that time, I've had to carry him up and down the stairs every morning and every night.  We've tried treats, his leash, going up, going down, etc.  Nothing worked.  He wouldn't budge past the first step or two.  This has been an enormous worry as our house has stairs inside and outside.  Tonight, that worry became a distant memory.  For reasons we'll never know, he decided to start using the stairs. Yes, his first attempt looked like a fawn trying to walk on ice.  That said, he has now gone up and down the stairs at least 5 times in the last 10 minutes.  This may not seem like big news, but trust me, this very well could be the thing that keeps him as a part of our family.  It's time to go celebrate with a few extra treats!
