Do any of your pups have more trouble jumping up onto couches/beds, etc. when their hair gets longer?
Lucy will be three in July and her has only been trimmed twice -- once when I thought it'd be easier to keep it mat free and I chopped it short and the last time to get it off the ground. As a puppy (shorter hair) she was able to jump onto our couches and beds without any trouble. Probably over the last year, she's had trouble. She bounces up and down, up and down, up and down and finally she gets up. I've bought her a step stool and she uses that all the time to get on the bed.
I would think it'd be the opposite, trouble when she was young and then no trouble after she grew into adulthood. So I am wondering if it could have anything to do with her hair? She's not walking on it but could it weigh enough to slow her accent?
