Here’s an update on Sadie refusing to go up the stairs to our bedroom. Wen continued to carry her upstairs, but yesterday after Molly and I had followed Wen upstairs to the bedroom, all of a sudden there was noise on the stairs and Sadie walked into the room. After days of not making it past the landing and much whining, Sadie made it all the way upstairs by herself and she has continued to go up and down ever since, as if she had never had a bad case of stairs phobia.
Whatever caused Sadie’s phobia remains a mystery, especially since she has never had a problem going up or down before, but it’s a relief that she has finally conquered her fear and we won’t be hearing any more of her whining and carrying on. Now we can only hope that she has totally forgotten her phobia and it remains forgotten!
