Hello, Helen, I am proud of my dog. He is ten and has an early stage of artrosis and that's why he sometimes can't walk normally. We live in a flat on the top floor and the need to go downstairs and upstairs stops him greatly... He has fear of heights. Yes, it was a great risk to go up and down in your "dog suit". I can't say that he liked it, but he didn't panic. As if the bond of equipment inspired him to trust!!! I am sending the photo of his first "flight". Thank you, happy New Year!!
