WHAT DOG PARENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT OUR DOG STAIRS
John D.
My old shepherd, Max, can't jump like he used to. This wide step is perfect! The sturdy base holds his weight easily, and the lower height makes it a breeze for him to climb up.
Christina
My tiny apartment doesn't have much space, but this step fits perfectly! The low profile tucks neatly next to the couch without taking up precious room.
David
This step doubles as a training tool for my playful pup, Charlie! I hide treats under the platform, and he uses his nose to sniff them out. Keeps him entertained while also practicing his "up" command
