 Best Investment for a Doggy Owner! June 30, 2008
Hands down, these are the best thing I could have bought for my 14lb Westie! I have a huge king size sleigh bed that I share with my pooch, and was looking for a quality set of stairs. Wood looks nice, but as my father, who does construction says, although it'll look nice, will be too heavy.
I bought these for $50+ at Petsmart and thought THAT was a value until I saw it sold here for much less!
The 'carpeting' on it gives her a nice grip, the plastic, although cheap looking, is nice and light for me to move to clean under it. The height is also perfect for the bed! (Something that is lacking in all the other much pricier stairs Ive looked at.) At first she was hesitate to use it, but after some coaxing with treats, she realized that she can now get on my bed without begging and now uses it EVERY single time, both to get on and off.
This is a must have, especially if you have a breed that is prone to luxating patella like I do!
Since it's a daily necessity and is very sturdy, I say this is the best investment I could have made, especially since even I use it as much as she does! lol Yes, I am quite petite at 5' 110lbs, but I use it all the time to get on and off my bed! I've had this for over a year now, and it still looks brand new (carpeting is easy to vaccum with my hand held vaccum and wipes down cleanly) The spacing of the steps and width of the steps is so easy to use, even I have no issues using it and I would think my paws are bigger than hers! lol
PS. Ive been told many times and read it repeatedly that if something is too high for my dog to jump ON, imagine how bad it is for her knees to jump off! If not for the convenience for YOU to have to pick up your dog onto furniture, then do it for their health when you imagine the impact on their joints when they jump off!
 height is great for high beds May 12, 2008
I bought these from a local pet store for my 8 week old beagle puppy. She learned very quickly how to use them. They are perfect for her now but I am not sure how great they'll be when she is bigger. But if you have high bed these are the way to go. I wouldn't purchase these for a large dog that is a senior as they would probably be to narrow. I would say great for dogs 30 pounds and under.
Back Saver April 23, 2008
My vet told me that my dachshund was experiencing back strain and needed some life-style changes and recommended getting some pet steps. After doing research on many different brands, these pet steps were the most attractive and tall enough for my queen sized bed.
He was unsertain about using the steps at first and was kind of unstead on them in the begining. After one afternoon of training (with lunch meat as reinforcemnt), he learned how to go up and down them with no issues.
I've had these about a month now and Stanley the weenie dog, has been back pain free ever since.
Great if your pet will actually use it! April 21, 2008
My chihuahua and pomeranian have both had trouble getting up onto my bed, so I ordered this to help them. The height was perfect and the structure was pretty stable. It even makes a dandy footrest. The only problem was... my dogs refused to use the steps! I showed them how several times, lured them up with food, and while my pom used them a few times, my chihuahua refused. I decided to return them, and Amazon made it pretty easy. On the day UPS picked the steps up, both dogs jumped on the bed... just to spite me.
So these steps are great as long as your pet will use them.
Stps for little ones April 6, 2008
My husband injured his knee and could not lift "Ruby" on to the bed. She was very depressed, I am in a wheel chair and could not help. Now she flies up the stairs, coming and going as she pleases. Ruby is a 20 lb, minature daschond mix. One happy dog.
