I need to take a picture of how perfectly the 3 piece wedge works in my bedroom for the dogs to get up and down off the bed. Spencer, Susie and Angie go up and down it like so easily!!

Here's a link to what I have......Highly recommended btw.......

Pet Ramps | Dog Ramps | Dog Stairs - Large, Lightweight, Foam - Large Selection

Durable Foam Dog Steps from Puppy Stairs. The Best Dog Ramp and Step

I ordered this for my Katie Charlotte last October/November, she doesn't use it (can't see and has orientation issues) but the other three love it and nobody has to jump up and down off the bed in the coach.....

GREAT PRODUCT!

I think dog ramps work great for small dogs. However, I tried one for the outside steps for two big dogs and it was hard for them to get the traction they needed to get up, it seemed like it was harder on their hips than the steps were.

We had a tiny Yorkie who couldn't jump onto the bed so I made a ramp using 1/4 plywood. Cut it out, screwed the 4 pieces together and covered with a piece of scrap carpet. After about 12 years dear little Yorkie is gone, but a little fat Pom that I inherited frommy Mother is using it very well.

I think that is our biggest concern for the future of our GSDs. Gunny is starting to show some age and doesn't glide up the steps like Thor. Time will tell.
