Choosing the Right Ramp for Your Dog One of the first dog ramp features you want to look at is TRACTION. It's especially important for dogs recovering from injury or surgery. Finding a ramp with non-slip surface is absolutely essential as the last thing any pet owner wants is to have your fur baby slip on it that is supposed to keep them safe. It's also helpful to keep in mind that the top of a ramp doesn't need to be set flush to the top of your couch or bed. Set the end of a ramp a few inches lower against your couch or bed to create a lower incline and your dog can take one small step up or down. Ramps are good to use from puppy to older dogs. Help prevent injuries and joint problems by using the ramp early on in your dog's life and use it for years to come and well into their old age. Dogs can easily injure themselves jumping from various heights. A ramp with a grippy surface can significantly reduce the risk of injury and keep your dog healthier for longer. We pride ourselves in our innovative approach to anti-slip material which offers way more slip resistance than a regular carpet. Measure from the floor to the top of the bed or couch your dog is trying to reach also keep in mind the width and length of your pet when making the purchase. *On delivery, please check if the product is packed properly and there is no physical damage to the ramp.
