Highlighted Reviews

— Stacey

"Perfect for Doxie short legs! This isn't stairs; it's scalloped ridges. Perfect for floor to sofa height. Fleece top traction. My puppy LOVES it for independent adventures up & down."

— Margaret

"Literally laughed out loud when I saw the size of these steps while unpackaging."

It would be a mistake to buy assuming it'll fit most couches or beds. If you plan to use it for a small sofa or if you measure carefully, you’ll love this. It makes a great gift if you have a tiny dog or cat,
