STAIRS FOR PETS?
Dogs and cats do not like stairs! It is very difficult for our furry friends to attempt to climb stairs, particularly if they are currently experiencing joint swelling, dysplasia, arthritis or pain. It is most difficult for them to bring their back legs onto another level, which further causes pain and injury. The gradual slope of a ramp is the answer, for it allows the pet to slowly, walk up the PetSTEP, at their own pace. Do not wait until your pet is old, becomes injured or can no longer get to their favorite place.

The single worst thing that we can let our beloved pet do is to jump down from high places. Most of us do not think about this however, by allowing a pet to jump from a high place is exactly like us jumping from the back of our SUV or kitchen table on our hands. All the weight of the person or pet is placed on our hands or paws. It is particularly destructive after the pet has been in a vehicle for an extended period of time, as their muscles, joints & tendons are stiff. This repetitive stress will contribute to arthritis and hip dysplasia. We recommend you never let your pet jump up or down from difficult places, start them on a PetSTEP at a young age. Don't wait until your pet is injured, arthritic or displays signs of dysplasia!

Our PetSTEP products and accessories make our PetSTEP II truly an all-purpose ramp. With the addition of optional equipment, the PetSTEP quickly converts into a sturdy table, a wagon/cart with a pull handle, a flotation kit for boat, a dock ramp, and is excellent for swimming pool safety, particularly for those pools without steps.

Another Safety NOTE:  If you own a dog ramp, please do not place it loose in the compartment with your pet as it becomes a missile in a sudden stop. It is best to simply tuck the dog ramp behind your driver's seat where it is safe and handy for you. We also do NOT recommend placing the dog ramp flat on the back seat, as this presents similar problems in a quick stop.
