Stairs for Small Dogs

Small dogs such as toy breeds and miniatures may need a little help when it comes to getting on furniture in your home. Even if some small dogs can make the jump to your chair or loveseat it could do damage to their little joints especially when jumping down. You can help prevent this with pet stairs or a pet ramp. Stairs or a ramp are designed with small dogs in mind. These options allow your small dogs to gain access to and from furniture and even your bed without hurting themselves or placing unnecessary pressure on their joints. Make sure when picking out pet stairs or ramps that you check the weight capacity and not the breed that it recommends using the product. For instance, some stairs may say OK for Pomeranians with a weight limit of 12 pounds. This wouldn’t work for the Throwback Pomeranian which can be over 15 pounds.
