Frequently Asked Questions about Dog Steps & Ramps

Where can I use a dog ramp?

You can use a dog ramp in your car or SUV to help make getting into the cargo area or back seat easier. You can also use a dog ramp in your yard to help your dog go up and down slopes or steps with greater ease. Most dog ramps feature a non-slip surface that allows a good grip on inclines to ensure sure footing with every step. Just be sure that wherever you put your dog ramp is safe, that the ramp is secure and that the incline is not too great for your dog to ascend.

Are dog steps or ramps better for older dogs?

Dog ramps are better for some older dogs, but others do not like using them. Dog ramps can offer a more gradual incline that may be easier for senior or arthritic dogs to manage and dog ramps are also usually foldable, making them better for travel and automobile use. Some dogs may be afraid of using a ramp at first, so you may need to coax your pet and show him how to use it. If you cannot, however, dog stairs and steps may be a good alternative. Dog stairs and steps take up less space and may be less frightening for older dogs, making them a more practical choice for use inside the home.

Where should I put dog steps?

You should put dog steps anywhere your dog needs help getting up or down on furniture. Try dog steps next to the couch, your bed, a favorite chair or anywhere your dog might hurt himself trying to get to by jumping. Dog steps can also be used to help your pup get into and out of the car. Dog steps and ramps can be very helpful for small dogs, dogs with joint issues, senior dogs and those recovering from injuries.
