With having Drake now and taking him on so many hunting trips afield not to mention personal outings he accompanies us on. I wanted to look into a pet ramp to help with his jumping in and out of my Durango. Even though he is only 2 years old and has no problem getting in and out of the vehicle; I look at it as a preventative measure to help him now for his future health.
A pet ramp or a dog ramp can be a preventative healthcare tool as even the healthiest pet is susceptible to joint or spinal injuries when jumping up or down from heights. Breeds with long spines, short legs, or overweight bodies are at significantly higher risk because of the additional stress. Damage may be done each and every time a pet is required to jump up or down from high places. This can be particularly damaging to them after your pet has been lying down for a period of time allowing their muscles, joints and tendons to become stiff. Pet ramps can eliminate the risk of impact, shock and repetitive stress that can contribute to arthritis and the emergence of hip dysplasia.
I found the ramp very easy to use, light weight, durable and compact enough to carry in the back of my vehicle without taking up too much extra room. It has a sandpaper type finish to help the dog with their footing while climbing it. It can be adjusted to a few different lengths for different vehicles. So this makes it versatile. Drake weighs about 80 pounds and it holds up quite well. I would recommend this product to anyone who has a pet especially a hunting dog. You can make life easier and more enjoyable for your pet at any age.
