The first time Peanut didn’t make it onto the bed when he jumped, my heart sank. I knew it was time to start getting some stairs to help him out. We’ve gotten a few different ones this past year or two and this brand is my favorite. Some other brand I got had steps that were so tiny he had to just about tiptoe up them! While he’s having trouble jumping, he is running just fine and he slid a few times trying to run up those steps. They had to go.This model is a bit smaller than the one I already had, which comes right up to the top of couch cushion. He is happy with it for now, but I may need to find the taller one eventually.Sometimes I think about getting two sets of stairs for our bed because when one of the cats lays down on the bed and it’s where the stairs are, Peanut will walk all around on the floor until I realize what’s happening and move the cat. I think one of the cats might be doing it on purpose, haha.I very much recommend these stairs. Maybe two of them.

Got this for our older cat that is having a hard time with her jumping. She's not been able to get on the bed, and since getting this has no problems at all. She took to it right after being shown the intended purpose. Has been using these stairs ever since!

He’s afraid of it. However, my cat loves it!

i have a bench at the end of my bed that my dare we say plump old dog has been using to get on the bed. even that was getting hard for her. so i bought this set of steps thinking this probably won’t help but give it a try. i put it up to her bench and put chicken pieces on the steps and up on the bed and by guppies she did it. proud of her and of myself! lol

I have a small pomeranian. These steps are almost too narrow for her. She has to be very mindful of stepping off of the couch onto them. They are also 'angled' just slightly, which almost pushes her down them. My husband made a set in the past that was wider and the steps were flat and she loved those. I just didn't like the 'homemade' look to his, so I bought these. It would be great if they were a few inches wider and if the steps were flat and not angled. I won't buy again.

These little stairs are the perfect size and weight for my 13 lb shih poo puppy, but it took him about three weeks to figure that out! The stairs are great, but I'm glad I didn't expect my puppy to get the hang of them right away based on his ability to use stairs otherwise.THE PRODUCT:This is a small set of two steps that help my puppy get on and off the couch. My cat, who utterly refuses to let me trim her claws, hates these stairs because her claws get caught on the carpeting covering each tread. If I had bought this item for her, I might remove the covering. For the puppy, the traction is appreciated. And the cat doesn't need the assistance the puppy does. 😁The steps are slanted, not level, which encourages my puppy to go up and down rather than hanging out on each stair. I found this to be a useful feature. It assisted in training him to use the stairs.THE TRAINING:For those who are saying their dogs wouldn't use these stairs, please know that it did take three weeks to get my six month old puppy accustomed to them. He's able to take full flights of stairs just fine, but these were new to him and not the same. When treats to lure him up and down didn't do the job, I realized the issue was education, not motivation.I used the same tactics to train him to use these stairs that I did when teaching him to use stairs originally.If he wanted up, I would lift him so his hind legs were on the top stair and his front legs were on the couch. He had no trouble moving his hind legs onto the couch, too. After doing that for a few days, I started putting his hind legs on the bottom stair and his front legs on the top stair. Again, he was easily able to jump onto the couch from that position.Unfortunately, that's where our progress stalled, but I let him take it at his own pace. After a few weeks, seemingly out of nowhere, he ran up the stairs onto the couch all by himself one day. From that point on, he didn't need assistance anymore.I used the same strategy to teach him how to go down the stairs. I placed his hind legs on the bottom step and his front legs on the floor. Once he seemed comfortable and confident with that, I started putting his hind legs on the top step and his front legs on the bottom step. He picked up how to get down much faster than how to get up; it only took a day or so for him to have mastered it.(I found it amusing that this was the opposite of how things went when I needed to teach him how to use "real" stairs.)Anyway, I hope that helps someone get their dog used to these. These are great little stairs and for the price, worth a small amount of work!
