Dog Ramp
PostedMarch 6, 2013
Rich13
from Northern New Jersey
We traveled with a ten year old yellow Lab who is over one hundred pounds and who is starting to show his age to Florida and back in an SUV and this product saved my back from having to lift him in and out of the vehicle. The product was well worth the money. It is well made and easy to store in the vehicle. After a few practice sessions before we left, the dog had no trouble going in and out of the vehicle. It did not bend when he was on it like some of them do and the dog did not mind going up and down the ramp. We used the ramp at least fifty times during the trip and had no problems.

Sturdy

I'm happy to report that the ramp does hold my labs weight......and is sturdy while he goes up and down it.
Does not fit on the side door entry of a ford explorer, too wide, and door only opens so far. fits only the back tail gate door. Wish is were a little wider, but is the common width of these ramps, and is easy to store. Hoping it lasts for a long while

from Kimberley, BC
Ramp slides in and out smoothly. Very sturdy for my shepard lab X. Only downside I'm not happy with, is the non-slip grip. It's more like a hard plastic that my dog finds a little slippery. Especially going up from the snow.

Easy
PostedJanuary 13, 2013
2pits1jrt
from Rockaway Beach, NY
Easy to set up, store, take down, move.. very light and easy to carry. My older pit bull is in recovery from a back injury (also he has arthritis) and could neither do stairs nor get into our Jeep. He weighs 78 pounds, so lifting him/carrying him was not a great option for our backs! The ramp is non-slip and adjusts to a really nice length. My dog figured out how to use it quickly and now seems to enjoy it. The only downside is, there's no cover or carrying case to protect your vehicle interior when you pack the ramp. A bit pricey, but my dog is worth it.

great investment

This ramp was really worth the investment. I use it for my greyhound getting out of my Honda CR-V. This ramp will save your back, and your dog, if you have injured or bigger/older dogs who should not be jumping in or out of the car. It fits perfectly in the back of my car so it is convenient to travel with!

My dog has a bad back and the vet has recommended that she no longer go down steps. She uses this ramp with ease. It holds up great in weather. We leave it out at our back steps.

IfMollyAintHappy
from Indiana
Molly is a 90 pound bassador - basset and black lab - who loves to ride in her Daddy's F-150! However, getting her in and out is a back breaking process for Daddy and hard on Molly as well. We bought this hoping to use it for both the truck and our travel trailer, and we are absolutely thrilled. My husband places the ramp against the door frame of the truck, and up she goes - and getting in and out of the RV is no problem at all. It took a couple of times to acclimate her, but we found that if we had her on the lead and walked next to the ramp, she went right up. Now she goes up and down without coaxing. The fact that the ramp is so lightweight and telescopes makes it easy to stash behind the truck seat. Hubby has a bad back, and I have a hard time picking her up, but the Smart Ramp has solved all that! I highly recommend the Smart Ramp!

Elsie actually uses it
PostedApril 5, 2012
ElsMom
from West Shokan, NY
My very large dog Elsie completely ruptured her ACL and had to undergo TTA (knee replacement) surgery. She is not allowed to run or jump, etc. for the next 4-6 months. She has frequent vet check-ups and loves rides in the car in general.
Because Elsie is so large (90+ pounds), lifting her into the car is not an option and creates more problems in the attempt. I ordered the Smart Ramp...good move! It came two days after surgery. Elsie has never used a ramp and was afraid of any homemade concoction I came upwith! I put the Smart Ramp onto the back of my station wagon and she walked right up and down! It is sturdy, easy to use, and non-threatening! Great product! We love it! And now she can safely come for her much-loved car rides!

Works great for my Bassett Hound
PostedDecember 19, 2011
Tex428
from Aurora, CO
I give this item 5 stars for my Bassett Hound. I give this product 3 stars for my aging Great Dane. My Dane has a hard time getting traction up the ramp, but has no problem going down the ramp. It's hard to use by myself while loading the Great Dane. Much easier loading the Dane with two people. It works for tall dogs, just be sure to "guide" them up the ramp. Otherwise a fine product.

Smart Ramp does the job

The smart ramp is an excellent way for my dog to enter and exit our SUV without having to jump or impact. At seven years we are more concerned about her not having hip and leg problems. This helps a lot!

We have a bulldog and a Newfoundland, and this ramp is wonderful. We use it to get them in and out of a full size pickup. It is very sturdy and doesn't bounce. Both dogs only took about 2 hours to feel 100% comfortable using it. We found parking next to a curb while they were getting used to it helped, as it lowered lowered the angle of incline.

saved me and the dog
PostedNovember 29, 2010
851Marcus
from Resaca, Ga.
I am in my 50's with a 9 year old dog who is 120+ lbs. This ramp saved my back and my dogs hips. There is ever any movement when she is on the ramp and she is able to go right up. I wish I got this years ago to help her into the back seat of the truck. The non skid finish marks easily but the finish isn't hurt with the marks. I would happily recommend this product to everyone.

Top Shelf! Except...
PostedNovember 29, 2010
SirWinston
Sir Winston is a 7 yr old Sheltie who is limping from time to time. I travel in my monster RV Class A coach and it has high steps. My thoughts were that he was jaring his leg joints with the amount of "in and out" we do as we are both active. I have only been using the ramp for a fortenight and his limping has just about disappeared. Product is excellently made, fairly light weight and actractive to the eye. The extension slides easily. I extend and retract the extension on every use so I can keep the ramp inside in the stair well to keep the weather off of it. Works great! Only prob encountered is that the ramp must be turned to the top end down as there are no "clips" at the top to keep the extension fast. So, I must reverse the ramp so the top is at the bottom to be able to lift the ramp in and out of the coach for use. However, it is not a prob, merely a minor issue. I am a product designer and manufacturer.

A REAL LIFE SAVER
PostedOctober 26, 2010
earthmom521
from Southington, CT
I purchased this ramp to help my 8 mo. old Rottie puppy into the back seat of my pick-up truck...there isn't much room and it's pretty high off the ground so she balked at jumping in or out on her own...The product arrived here within 2 days and, after luring her onto it in the house using hot dog bits as bait, she took to it in a flash...now she's in and out of the truck in a flash and seems pretty pleased with herself to boot...it's light weight, telescopes easily and doesn't take up much room in the truck at all...a real life saver for my back...she won't be a puppy for long. It may be the best pet purchase I've ever made.

Sturdy and adjustable
PostedJuly 12, 2010
WSJevons
Unlike the previous poster, I will review the actual product and not their inability to train a dog.
I was reticent at first because where the ramp meets the car didn't seem solid. So I tried it out myself first. No worries.
The surface is very tacky and I would have no problem using it in the rain. It is very similar to the rough sandpaper-like applique for stair treads.
The ramp is adjustable and here is the only reason I can ding it. Follow the directions or you will pinch skin or worse.

Memo
Dog's will not go near the ramp. Have tried it on my back stairs coming into the house, but they will not go up or down the ramp. Tried giving them a treat to entice them, but still no good.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
