JulesP Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Just saw these interesting folding stairs on Deals Direct. http://www.dealsdirect.com.au/p/folding-pet-staircase/ Not sure how sturdy they would be but they are compact. And cheap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westiemum Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 JulesP they look like a good design - the only thing that concerns me is that they don't mention the maximum weight the steps will bear safely. Is it a chunky 8 -9 kg westie or a mega kgs husky for example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tralee Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 (edited) I love 'em My 50 kg Maremma can jump up that high. So, my question is: if the stairs can only support a low weight then what's stopping someone from lifting the dog up? ETA: I just spoke to Edwin on live chat and they said that the product page should be watched over the next few days and they will update the information.

Sheridan Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 They look a bit fragile to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulesP Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 http://www.discountramps.com/dog_ramps.htmfound this The reason I posted this Bartok is that ramps are rather painful to carry around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartok Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 there is stairs on the link also nice sturdy looking ones I understand the issue with the ramps I cant buy anything to heavy due my back injury either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Shepherd mom Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 the steps look too flimsy for a 37kg dog but I like the selection of ramps. There are some wide/long ones there. OH made one and Casper keeps falling over the side, even though it's quite wide. Will have to compare with the ones listed on the web site. Hate to think what postage will cost!
