Hello
Introducing myself and our new family member, Cooper. 10 weeks old and bringing a lot of joy and chaos to our lives. Learning to sit,stay and go outside for toilet so far. Doing really well. He bites and licks quite a bit especially to my young 11 year old son. We are trying to teach him to be more gentle. Our first larger dog of any breed previously owning staffordshire bull terriers for the last 20 years. Our last reaching a grand age of 18 years. He seems to like getting onto things and standing. We have stairs he loves to go up and down in this house. Our concern is that he may damage his young joints doing it. Should we limit his stair climbing until he's a bit older?? Any advice appreciated.
Thanks
John
