Jake got new slippers! Big story made short, I've tried so many options to stop Jake from scratching up the new hardwood floors...slippers, nail caps, walking lessons:) I was getting so frustrated! After talking to my friend, Dana, turns out Jake probably has some old age pain and some loss of vision at night. I feel so bad for making him repeatedly walk around the house after he goes sliding across the floor:( Poor Mr. Lickems! I won't be so hard on him anymore!
