i REALLY wish i could show you video of D. First off, she's walking so much now. She still falls a lot, but she doesn't always fall. She's taken 14 steps at once that i have seen, stopping after a few steps and starting up. She's even bent over to pick something up and then stood again and walked some more without falling!

And now she has figured out how to get onto the sofa from the floor. We sometimes turn up the sofa cushions to discourage the dogs from getting on the sofas. So D figured out how to get on the main sofa part where a cushion is turned up, then get onto the cushion. Aaargh! i learned from an internet forum to implement a "bottom or knees" rule; she can climb as long as she keeps her bottom or her knees on the furniture and not stand up. Yeah, sure! That's going over soooooooo well so far!
