He gets onto the bed or into the boot without hurting himself — repeated jumping wears out the joints of a small dog as much as an old one

No more carrying him in your arms — he climbs up by himself, ten times a day, without waiting for you

He actually uses it — a gentle slope and enough width: that's what gets a dog to step on

Description

Dog ramp in high-density foam. It takes away the impact of jumping into the boot, which puts several times your dog's body weight on his shoulders. The slope is everything: aim for a ramp roughly three times as long as the boot is high.

Rampe en mousse pour Animaux, escalier en pente douce

Dog ramp for dogs who can no longer jump into the boot

For a dog, jumping into a boot means an impact of several times its body weight on the shoulders and back. For an older dog, a dachshund, a dog after surgery or with hip dysplasia, every jump counts — and refusing to get in is often the first sign of pain.

A ramp removes the impact completely. What makes it work is the slope: a ramp too short for the height of the boot becomes a slide your dog refuses. That's how we choose our dog ramps.

Length, slope and non-slip surface: the three things that matter

This one is made from high-density foam. Gently sloping steps, available in 2 sizes and different colours — measure the height of your boot and aim for a gentle slope: in practice, you need a ramp about three times as long as that height. The non-slip surface is the second point: a dog that slips once won't go back up. Pair it with a foldable non-slip dog car ramp so he travels snugly in place.

Allow a length of about three times the boot height: this ramp is available in 2 sizes and different colours
Check the non-slip surface: a dog that slips once will refuse the dog ramp afterwards
Check the weight limit and width — a large dog needs room for all four paws
Test its stability empty by pressing hard in the middle before letting your dog on
Easy to look after: removable cover, washable by hand or in the machine
Keep it folded in the boot — a ramp left at home never gets used

Teaching a dog to use a ramp

Start on the flat: lay the ramp on the floor and have your dog walk across it for a treat, several times. Only then raise it, little by little. Pushed or carried, a dog remembers being forced and will refuse afterwards.

Hold the ramp for the first few climbs, even if it's stable: it's the movement, not the slope, that worries him. And so the journey doesn't undo the progress, a dog car seat stops him being thrown about in the back.

A sign of pain that's often misread: a dog who still jumps in but hesitates for a second, or takes his run-up differently, is already hurting. The ramp is far more useful at this stage than later, when he no longer jumps at all — and it's also when it's most easily accepted.

FAQ

Will my pet use it straight away?

Rarely on day one. Guide them with a treat, one step at a time, over two or three short sessions. Most dogs take to it in under a week.

Which size should I choose?

This model comes in 2 steps (beige - 40x40x30cm) and 3 steps (black - 40x55x30cm). Measure the space you have in mind and, for a bed, your pet's length lying stretched out plus about ten centimetres. Too snug and it won't get used; too big and it loses its reassuring feel.

Dog stairs or ramp?

Stairs take up less space and suit most pets. A ramp is the better choice for a dog with arthritis or a large breed, where repeatedly bending the back legs is exactly what you want to avoid.

What is it made of?

High-density foam. The material dictates the care, so check the specifications for the right way to wash it.
