Her royal nervousness, Hera, needs throne carriers, sort of like the Kings and Queens of the Indian type nations.
The gestatorial chair (sedia gestatoria in Italian, lit. "chair for carrying" ) was a ceremonial throne on which Popes were carried on shoulders until 1978. It consists of a richly adorned,
Maybe we could put two long poles under the swimming pool and she could be carried in a greyhound throne!
You could try boots until she's happier with the various floor surfaces. On the other hand if the Princess wants to be carried, so she should be:) LOL
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful.

Shoes will probably help. I know a greyhound who wears them to all the meet and greets because of the floors.
ReplyDeleteI have no real advice for the steps as Miss Scout still refuses to go up them on her own. She puts her front feet on the front step and then I have to lift her butt up and place her back feet on the step. She goes up them after that. She can do all of them, of course, but we have given up on trying to make her. We have had her for seven years and she is not going to change. LOL Going down is not an issue.
Miss Scout, you are the biggest crown I have seen! How did you train your mom to do that?
DeleteSo happy to hear you have adopted this lovely girl Hazel. I'm sure with a bit of time she will be fine - although the swimming pool idea was particularly hilarious! Thanks for the birthday wishes for Dip.

Lynne, thanks for commenting. Thanks for encouraging me.

ReplyDeleteWe took care of a dog that was afraid of smooth floors...until everybody went to bed, that is, and then she managed to make it across the kitchen floor to the garbage can with no problem. That's where the turkey carcass got dumped after Thanksgiving dinner, and she had herself a snack! Funny how "when there's a will, there's a way."
ReplyDeleteStella didn't like slick floors, and I ended up carrying her over them more than not. I'm sure she would approve of some type of ferry system across such floors.
