THE IMPORTANCE OF DOG STAIRS
Dog Jumping: Health Risks Explained

What i need
This step and ramp combo is fantastic! My Golden Retriever can now easily get on the couch without any hassle. The 2-in-1 design is so versatile, allowing me to switch between steps and ramp as needed. The no-slip surface gives me peace of mind knowing she’s safe. It’s incredibly convenient and has made our daily routine so much smoother.
Cheryl
Helped Tino recover
After my Boxer’s surgery, he needed a safe way to get on and off the couch without stressing his legs. This step and ramp combo has been essential for his recovery! The ramp feature is perfect for his needs, and it's sturdy enough to hold his weight securely. It’s played a significant role in his healing process, and I couldn't be more grateful.
Madison
Good for big pals
I have a big Rotweiler weighting 100 pound, who loves to be on the couch, but lifting him was becoming a problem due to his size. These dog stairs with a ramp option have been perfect. The 200lbs weight capacity handles his size without any issues, and he quickly learned to use it. They also came fully assembled. It’s been a game changer for both of us!
