Thanks Bob, I know of course that you can't suggest the best way of dealing with his issues without knowing him and without being physiotherapist for dogs;. But as you know handling dogs so much better than I, I'm sure you would discover things I'm doing which you wouldn't do. So it's a great help for me.
A lower banc, yes!!! Why didn't I think of this! I must find something lower for him to climb on. But imagine - this morning he jumped on it with all four! This is not a climbing though, but I think a wonderful progress and of course I rewarded and praised generously and repeated 4 times with success.

Thanks, Bob, I'm very enthusiastic. I know, whatever will end or seem as a complete failure of understanding, suddelny turns into an at least partly understanding. I'm totally astonished and I will stay on this level for some time, because he immensily loves now to do this.
Today he even "walked" on a high gymnasticball, of course with loosing it soon. No big deal. He def. knows what I want and one front paw and sometimes even both (!!!) is just great fun for him and me. I stop the ball with my legs from rolling too much. But he's definitally getting used to it. Training his feeling for balance, This is at the moment my goal/ apart from fun of course.
Great dog, can't describe!

Charlie made it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As you recomended, Bob, I restarted training with something lower, such a bank we had not, just a stable box. Now he climbs the higher bank also with his hind legs. Now it is celebration week or longer.

Yes it is! So happy ! He is now also starting to hold a sit stay for a few seconds, which for him is a big success.
"outfricking" I didn't find in Google translate. They only have the translation in French, which means "trembling". Looked in other dicts too. One says it is a slang word and originally means masturbating.
Another gives an example: Gimme my pen back ! - No you fricking idiot its mine !
Next one: "Fucking"
Or did you mean outfreaking? = React with extreme emotion?
Reading it in the context I guess it must be this.
Well, well, your language is frickingly witty!
