Hi there….Magic was 114 pounds when he did his amp and astonished me by his ability to maneuver….as you have now discovered.

I put ramps where our back steps are and found him in the house when I turned my back…after I had had to practically lift and move him down the ramp…he had maneuvered around the ramp that he HATED (no matter where in his lifetime I tried to use it) to use the steps…sometimes he would clear the bottom step altogether and just jump from kitchen to patio….the front steps were more gradual I think and he did those fine.  I attempted to get steps for him to use to get in the truck and got the   ones advertised here….they are great steps I THOUGHT…Magic, not so much.  He never would use them right so those heavy suckers are in the garage where my heirs will probably wonder what the hell they are down the road!!

Good luck with the journey you have started…and keep us up to date with pictures of progress!!

Welcome home Duncan!

Of course, Duncan right now is still adjusting to his new tripawd status but he also might always be a little cautious going down stairs; Catie still is and it's been seven months. She wouldn't even attempt the stairs to our third-level family room level until fairly recently. She'd pace and hover around at the top of the stair case, look down at us and wander off with a sigh to her pillow on the main level until one day she simply decided she'd had enough and braved the stairs (albeit very tentatively). She got a serious round of applause once she reached the bottom.

Sounds like everything is going well so far. Duncan might have some better days than others over the next couple of weeks but guaranteed he'll keep amazing you. Sending many many healing wishes for a steady recovery and looking forward to more updates.
