“Puppy Stairs^® foam dog steps and pet ramps provide relief for every animal that struggles to get up to a favorite resting place.” 

— Jeanne Wolfington and Krystal Hanson, Puppy Stairs founders and inventors 

Inventing a pet bed ramp for Jeanne’s disabled Yorkie…

“In 2002, my 5-pound Yorkshire terrier,  Raphael, became disabled and required neurosurgery. After his surgery, I searched for steps to enable him to get up and down from the couch and bed. I was disappointed that available devices were made of rigid materials that caused too much impact for the sensitive nature of his injury. My friend Krystal responded, ‘How about foam rubber?’ 

We purchased a sewing machine, had some cubes cut from industrial foam rubber, and made removable washable covers. Raphael took to the stairs immediately, so we made another set and gave them to the dog sitter. All his dogs loved them, including the larger breeds.” - Jeanne Wolfington

Pet bed ramp and stair solutions for all dogs and cats in need 

Once Jeanne and Krystal found durable, high-density industrial foam that maintained its shape under significant weight, Puppy Stairs was born. Its designs have received a U.S. Patent (beware of flimsy imitators!). Over the years, the company has expanded its standard pet ramps and stairs line, added large dog ramp options, and increased its fabric selections. 

Puppy Stairs products are praised by the pet-care community and popular media: 

• Veterinarians and pet health professionals recommend them for their joint-friendly, sturdy design, which outperform similar products. Read pet-owner testimonials about Puppy Stairs.
