If you have to carry him up the stairs, just be careful.
The wifey and I went to the beach once upon a time and took our three big dogs. This was a typical NC beach house built on pilings with the ground level being utility rooms, storage and parking. The main level was on the second story and the bedrooms were on the third floor. The oldest dog could not go up stairs so I had to carry her from the ground level to the main floor and at night up to the third floor. For the dog to go to the bathroom, I would have to carry her down and back up the stairs.
The first morning we were at the place, I carried the dog down stairs so she could go to the bathroom, and when I carried her back up the stairs, I pulled a muscle in my back. Pulled it really bad. I was in so much pain all I could do was lay on the couch most of the time. :shocked: Course, I still had to carry the dog up and down the stairs so she could do her business. :confused2:
I pulled the muscle when I had to turn a bit to get around some door or obstacle on the deck.
