Dog Jumping on the Bed

She will learn - she's still got some growing to do, and nerves and muscles and bones to figure out how to coordinate. Also, you don't want her to damage any of her growing body, either. Just wait, and soon she'll be leaping onto your stomach in the middle of the night!

Jumping on the bed isn't always safe for dogs. My poodle had been jumping on and off the bed for years. A few months ago she jumped off and landed the wrong way. She blew a disc in her back and is now paralyzed from the waist down. We spent $3000.00 on surgery that didn't even work! I would re-think having your dogs jump on the bed!

I wouldn't worry about large dogs such as a Lab jumping on and off a bed, as much as I would small dogs.

Isis will learn to jump on the bed on her own, when she feels she is able to to it succesfully. I've never personally had a pup that jumped up on to my bed before they were 5 months old, before then, they'd try to crawl on.
