Pet Gear Easy Step II PET Stairs

Even without reading the directions, I was able to put together the steps without needing a single bit of assistance. They have carpet squares on them so my dogs don't slide around when they are going up or down Also, it is possible to clean the carpet squares if they need to be cleaned. There are 3 dogs in my house, one of which is as small as a cat. One needs stairs to get onto the bed alone. My favorite set of stairs out of all the three that I've owned is this one.

My dog used to use a cloth-covered storage box as his step when I watched him use pet stairs for several years, however I found them to be too flimsy, too narrow, and too steep, and he eventually figured out a way around it. In the recent past, it has occasionally taken a little bit of a turn in the low side, then In my bedroom, there is a window seat between my bed and the window seat. He needed steps between the two so he could climb up to get onto either bed. Despite the tilt of the steps, I had earlier dismissed this one, however I have to admit that it seems to have the best probability of working. A 17 lb Shih Tzu aged 14 years old lives with me. It took me less than an hour to assemble with no tools and fit perfectly in the space I needed them in. My dog was not sure of these steps at first, even though he had been using them for years. I used a treat to encourage him up and down a couple of times and he slipped on the plastic edges leading him not to In order to fix that, I covered the steps in a heavy dog blanket, which also had the benefit of anchoring them down more firmly on the floor. Next I used a treat again to get puppy to go up and down, then I let him go. Ever since, he has used them every time.

My daughters two dogs (a terrier mix and a lab mix) both saw them and decided it was fun to go up and down on them too. The steps were "owned" within hours of their setup by all three dogs and one tween boy, so using them was a no brainer Here's the problem. I appreciate how sturdy these steps are the assembly was easy, and they should last for a long time. and that is why I gave it a four out of five star rating. '1) All the dogs slipped on the plastic around the top of the steps because it was about an inch wide and rounded. To prevent it from happening, I had to cover the piano with a blanket. There needs to be no gap between the carpeting and the wall. 2) Part of the steps are hollow and very light, which made the dogs feel insecure at first, as they weren't sure whether they could put their weight on them. This problem also seemed to be resolved by adding the heavy blanket. In any case, I think I would have added a weight at the end of the dowel that steadied from the inside. * Note There didn't seem to be a tilt in the steps It is a significant issue. The dogs did not seem bothered in any way It is sometimes even possible for them to sit or lie themselves on the steps.

I searched Amazon for pets stairs that would work for my dog. Ruger had no problem getting in our bed after a couple of seconds once he realized that these made getting in that much easier for him. During the assembly, my husband took about 5 minutes. Shipping was fast and assembly was straightforward. I really like this product!.

I have a senior and a younger puppy, and the older pup has trouble getting up off of If you bought the same thing at a pet store, you would have paid twice as much. The height is perfect for my couch and works for my dogs. Installation is easy all you need to do is click the pieces of the stairs into place. All the steps have small carpet pieces on them that can be washed and attach to each step via Velcro. You can rest assured your dog will not slip while using them because of their excellent traction. My bed also needs a similar cover, so I will be buying another one for it.

This is a good size for dogs that are larger. There has been trouble getting my dog into bed due to his age, and this was just what he needed I have to continue to help him feel secure while using it, but it works as it should. The brown one that I bought was for my parents' place, and somehow it bent and he fell through. He was in so much pain and I was A lot of weight on the joints caused it to be weak, leading to its collapse. My experience with the company was excellent they replaced the valve, and since then I have had no issues, I just make sure he uses the front valve instead of the side This is a great product because it is lightweight and is easy to take apart if necessary. In the case of tile or laminate wood floors, you may want to put a mat under it so your pet can't move it around and fall out of place when using Thanks to your product, I found something that works and my dog doesn't seem too upset with using my bed now that he cannot jump right on or off of it. It was not as wide as the other one I used to have, and there were more steps. We had a terrible time using it. It was difficult to find the right width for his stride because he had a long stride. Dogs of medium to large size will love these. I have a 90lbs dog and he does well with it.

For the first week, I had to put a lead on her to get her to use the steps in the house. She hesitated and would try to back away, and I finally had to help her lift her back legs because she was unfamiliar with the steps. On the second week, she jumped off or on the bed just like she always did until I sat to block her path and coaxed her to climb up the steps to sit with me again (having to teach her how to use her legs to get up the steps this time). On that day, I thought it was a waste of time and money, but by the third week, she was automatically doing these steps without my advice, and by the end of the month with them, she was doing them automatically. like waking up to the sound of her walking down the stairs, and she uses them to get off and on the bed on her own about 90% of the time. I'm sure this is both saving her back and joints, and I'm pretty sure she is as well. Oh yeah, and putting it together is pretty simple.
