RAMP4 PAWS
is designed for dogs weighing 160lbs or less, when they enter and exit
vehicles. And, after surgery, injury, or with advancing age, a dog with
limited mobility may need help climbing a few stairs. Why not let RAMP4PAWS
bear the weight, instead of your back and shoulders?
Experience shows that medium to large size
dogs can injure their legs and backs jumping in and out of vehicles. Through
all stages of life -- from a young, enthusiastic pup to an older, less agile
dog -- RAMP4PAWS
can help reduce this kind of stress on a dog's body. Dog owners risk injury
to their own backs when lifting dogs into and out of vehicles (especially
SUVs) or helping them up a few stairs. Why wait until an emergency happens?
Train your dog to use RAMP4 PAWS
as part of your daily routine!
RAMP4PAWS
is designed and manufactured with two objectives -- safety and convenience
for you and your canine companion. Every ramp comes with detailed instructions
on how to use the ramp, and how to train your dog to use it. With your
patience, lots of praise and enthusiasm, and some tasty little treats, your
dog should learn to walk up and down the ramp with confidence.
Unlike other dog ramps, RAMP4 PAWS
rolls up for easy, compact storage so you can travel conveniently with it in
the car. It is lighter weight than other dog ramps. Each ramp comes with a set
of textured stripswhich can be applied for extra traction. In addition,
every ramp comes with its own washable nylon storage bag (with
instructions attached).

Ramp4Paws comes in two
sizes. Which size is best for your vehicle?
NOTE:
Sedan (4-door) side doors do not open wide enough for either size ramp (which
measures 15-1/2" wide).
18-Link Ramp
The 18-link ramp is
designed for station wagons, most SUVs and small trucks. From the ground to
the top of your car bumper/tailgate, the height should be no more than 31" in
order to ensure that the slope of the ramp will be manageable for your dog.
(Heights greater than this may cause the slope of the ramp to be too steep.)
Some SUVs (the Volvo, BMW and full-size Range
Rover) are not suitable for Ramp4Paws because they have rear doors which split
in half: the window portion lifts up, and the lower portion folds down to rest
on top of the bumper, adding several inches to the bumper height and making
the ground-to-tailgate angle too steep. The Audi Q7 bumper also presents a
problem: the bumper has no rubber surface on which to rest the ramp’s rubber
foot, and is slightly sloping, making it difficult to position the ramp
securely.
If you own a truck, with a tailgate that
folds down to rest on the bumper, please make sure the ground-to-tailgate
distance is no more than 31". For example, the Ford Ranger, Chevy Colorado and
GMC Canyon are suitable for the 18-link ramp.
10-Link Ramp
The 10-link ramp is
designed for vans with sliding side doors, two-door cars, and small sets of
stairs. Vans with sliding side doors are lower to the ground and open wide
enough to accommodate the 10-link ramp nicely; ground-to-vehicle entry height
should be no more than 17".
*The Ramp4Paws Strap is designed
to stabilize the Ramp4Paws 18
LINK DOG RAMP ONLY when it
is used with 4- DOOR side-entry vehicles. The rear doors of these vehicles
do not open wide enough for the ramp to rest securely on the seat of the
vehicle, so the ramp must be placed at an angle.
