This morning, I left Jesse downstairs for just a couple of minutes whilst I got something upstairs... and suddenly he stood next to me. So for the first time, he climbed the stairs on his own.
I am not encouraging it, however, I won't stop him as it is only a couple or three times a day that the dogs actually go upstairs (apart from Flash that sleeps upstairs a lot when he wants to get away from things). So he will be fine.
He can't go down the stairs yet though... just as well though!
In the evening, I took him to the little park around the corner as I often do. It was the first time that Jesse was quite confident, often wandering a couple of three yards away from me rather than being under my feet all the time. Recall remains excellent though.
We also met four staffies in the park today. Jesse was always a little worried about them as I guess he just wasn't used to bullbreeds. Today was the first time that he seemed more confident with them and even wanted to play. Excellent! I am well pleased with his progress.
