An amusing video of a labrador who appears to be scared of stairs until she gets helps from a much smaller rescue dog called Pippy.

The footage, filmed in Shipley, UK, shows Bronte really struggling to get down the wooden, garden steps to see her owner.

Then, little Pippy comes out of the house and waltzes straight down the stairs, prompting Bronte to follow.

Although the video was filmed three years ago, it has only recently emerged online.

Golden Labrador Bronte too scared to go down stairs until she gets a fluffy little helper. The garden steps in our former house had gaps in them which Bronte couldn't see beyond. All she noticed was the drop, not the step. Our little rescue Pippy showed her how to do it.
