    I haven't seen Harlee in a while...what a beautiful girl she has grown up to be!!

    We installed wood laminate in our dining room about a year ago, and it took the dogs some time to adjust. They still slip and slide when they get involved in a game of chase. If they got a vote, I'm sure they prefer we go back to carpet!

    Hottie did when I lived in a house with that floor type. I had to keep his fur really short on his paws. Hottie fell going down the stairs and then blamed the landing as " the dangerious part". He sleeps with me, and would stand at the bottom of the landing and bark . I put short little runners down. It helped but he was still suspecious. Little by little he came around.
    I am sure you already have the nails short, so take a look at the paws for side hair around the paws and underneith. Some poodles have alot of fur on the pads. Also if you wash the pads, it will raise the natural padding " flesh" cleaning it, and it will grip more. Do not soak the pads- just a wash.

    We had laminate installed about a year ago and the dogs didn't even hesitate to walk on it. They all run full force through out the house without a hitch. Maybe mine like to slip and slide??

    When Grant comes out of his crate in the morning he runs to the door to go out but he has to make a pretty sharp turn to get into the kitchen and he normally slides into the wall/garage door on the way out.

    I'm surprised I don't have more marks than I do on my walls from them running/sliding into them.

    Harlee looks gorgeous as ever.

    Don't have that type of flooring Pam, but those are great pictures of your poodles and grandpup!
