Dog Ramps: Helping Pets and Owners Alike
Drs Foster & Smith Educational Staff
Nothing is more important to the loving bond shared between pets and their
owners than spending time together. If physical limitations - including age,
size, or health conditions, such as dog arthritis - prevent us from enjoying
time together, we should do whatever we can to look for solutions that will
allow us to be together as much as possible.
Dog ramps and Stair-Steps offer ideal solutions for helping smaller, older,
and arthritic pets stay close to us by turning steep climbs into gentle
inclines, allowing them to easily get in and out of vehicles and on and off of
furniture. These portable tools easily (and often dramatically) improve a pet's
quality of life, while simultaneously helping to prevent owners' physical
problems, such as hernias and sore backs, resulting from repeated lifting of
pets.
The
lightweight Telescoping Pet Ramp
is designed to help small, large, arthritic, or aging pets into vehicles - especially today's sizable SUVs. At
nearly six feet in length, this non-skid ramp reaches over 30" high, holds up to
500 pounds, and quickly folds up for easy storage. Optional accessories, such as
a handy carrying bag, further enhance this convenient ramp.
Our sturdy
Indoor Ramp
is great for providing access to furniture or beds and is easily configured to fit the exact spot at which your pet requires assistance.
It's also ideal for smaller pets who may otherwise have trouble accessing
furniture and other out-of-reach spots. This ramp may also be used outside to
provide access to porches, decks, and more.
Carpeted stairs
 such as our 2- and 3-step Stair Steps are ideal for providing
pets with stable traction to get up and down from furniture, a deck or porch, or
a favorite windowsill perch.
These ramps have helped improve the quality of life for thousands of pets and
their owners, and are among our "Favorite Products" since they contribute in
such a positive way to that very special bond shared between our companion pets
and those that love them.
