Our town has some lovely walking trails that Simba and I enjoy a lot. They all have spots with little bridges. Over the summer they have been replacing the wooden bridges with metal ones. Someone is not impressed.

He flatly refused to put a paw on, even with a treat in the offing. We had to go down the rocks and jump over the small rivulet to cross.
So, what to do? I wonder if when the snow falls and covers the bridge he’ll cross and then by the time spring comes and it melts, he’ll have forgotten about it?
It is possible to cross most of the spots without using the bridge (this particular spot is the trickiest), so it’s not crucial that he is able to do it.
Any suggestions?
