I love this ramp for my Brittany to get up on the sofa. She is 12 years and has multiple elbow and hip surgeries making jumping up on the sofa non existent without me lifting her up. I have tried a step but steps are too far apart and she is very unstable on it. This ramp has a rubber coating on it making it easy for her nails to grasp for sure footing. I will be using it also to help get her into our SUV.
