That's funny and can relate to the thought.
Got put on the fourth floor of the last hotel and used the stairs since my dog is not fully acclimated to an elevator.
Ran up the stairs rather quickly and had to take a minute on the last step... my dog was looking at me with what I felt was a clear look of concern "are you going to pass out, do I need to start barking?"
her tail wag said it all when I caught my breath and continued walking to the room
