Puppy Steps

Are your current steps too steep? Is that the problem? I use a chair next to my bed for my chihuahua but there are lots of different height steps.

I fell over my nice set of dog steps in the middle of the night and broke them and couldn't find the same model anymore - when I was shopping online for something different the prices were out of this world.

I ended up buying an upholstered storage bench for the end of the bed, it come to half the height of the bed, the dogs just hop up and hop onto the bed. I spent the same amount of money and I have extra storage space now.

How about these from Plow & Hearth?

Being a person who does not believe in animals being on the furniture I would say get a dog bed and put it beside your bed for the dog.

Oh I got some replies!!

Our steps are the doggy steps that has the sheepskin cover on them. They are a plastic under that. The sheepskin material is worn out. Oh and we also had to put wood under the steps so it was higher.

We for sure have to do steps because one of our Chihs is almost blind. I need to find some that are a wider on the step itself.

I think we might try Pet Gear Easy Step III. I wish they would sell nice steps in the stores so I can return them easier if they do not work out for us.

happy housewife, Our dogs are 9 and 14. They have been sleeping with us from the day we got them. We tried the crate for the first night and they would whine and bark so it will not work to put dog beds beside ours.

Oh and lolakimono the Plow & Hearth steps are a wee bit pricey for the 3 step but Thanks for the suggestion.

Thank you for all your replies!

If I hadn't found the storage bench, the PetGear Easy Step III was what I was going to buy. I have elderly dogs also and those are the only steps that are nice and wide for an older animal to use easily.

I have some steps similar to these. They are expensive but I am glad that I bought them because I had already spent money on several cheap others with no results. I have had these steps 5 years now and my Shelties bound up and down them.

I got them from Amazon.
