The
HalfStep ramp is designed to be durable and portable and allow
your pet to easily enter and exit a vehicle to prevent injuries.
The ramp is portable so it can be used anyhwere at anytime. This
vehicle dog ramp is made from super strong polypropylene embedded
with fiberglass and engineered with a new non-slip surface of rubberized
material to provide better footing forpets to prevent slipping
and injuries. This pet ramp has a rubberized non-slip surface instead
of carpet. Carpet retains and creates moisture, mildew, odors,
germs, holds on to dirt and must be replaced periodically. The
HalfStep is tried and truly supported by most veterinarians.
The ramp dimensions is 35" long (when folded), 5" thick and 70" fully
extended, only weighs 18.5 pounds and has a capacity to support
500 pounds.
It is most difficult for your pet to bring their back legs onto
a high level. Professional studies indicate each time your pet
jumps up onto a high level, they most often strike their chest
or back legs, causing additional stress and injury. The gradual
slope of the HalfStep ramp allows your pet to slowly, walk up
the ramp, at their own pace. Professionals strongly recommend that
your pet should start using the HalfStep ramp at a very young
age as damage is done each and every time your pet is forced to
jump up or down from a difficult height.
The HalfStep can also be used as a sturdy utility table, as
a Flotation Kit for boats or deep water where the pet walks out
of the water and onto the boat and as a Swimming Pool Legs Kit
for swimming pool safety. This dog ramp is ideal for SUVs, pickups,
vans, stair replacements, boat to dock use and excellent for a
utility ramp. You can adapt your pet ramp as your lifestyle changes
and for people using the portable dog ramp in deep water, it will
not sink, it is designed with built-in buoyancy (the power to float
on water). Easily fold up ramp to store in the cargo area or trunk.
