Hey, thanks, everyone! I think I'll try the cheez whiz on the stairs. I've done treats, but, he's just terrified. He's just getting too heavy to carry down the stairs every time he has to go outside. And, see, about him being a big dog. I have thought his feet looked big, and, even his head. But, every other person I know that has a lab puppy, they're way bigger! My friend says his 8 week old lab is already almost 11 pounds, and, my other friend's 12 week old lab is supposedly twice the size of Finn. Finn weighs about 13 pounds, now. Maybe he's just a late bloomer. But, regardless, he's just beautiful, and, he's healthy, so, I don't care either way.
