Can anyone suggest where to get puppy stairs? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Hi there. Our seven month old has been jumping from the couch and once from our bed. We want to get stairs/steps preferably carpeted or sheepskin...maybe even microfiber. Can anyone recommend a vendor or a particular brand? We appreciate your suggestions.

I bought some really nice ones from eBay. I have the ones from Walgreens and they are junk.

I just got a PetEdge catalog today, I believe I saw some in there.

I have the one from Walgreens. My two are 4 lbs so they are fine for them. I use it for the couch. It is really cute, sometimes Maggie hides under the stairs and attacks Hot Rod when he comes down. lol.

Thank you all!

OT, but whenever I see you refer to "Hot Rod" and see his cute little face in your avatar I get a case of the giggles.

Ha, ha, ha! I know what you mean, everyone chuckles when we tell him his name. Hubby suggested it and I wasn't sure until he got the zoomies one night and that was that.

Imagining Maggie surprising Hot Rod really made me smile. How cute!

Nico29 · 01-30-2009, 06:35 PM

Do you happen to recall who you ordered from on EBAY? Or maybe you can describe them? Thank you!

she's a smart little booger. we watch them together and she is very calculating. we give them a bully stick each and she will take hers and hide it and come back and but him for his and as soon as he gets up she runs and grabs his. It is comical. When she first came home, she found a spot that he couldn't fit into and made that her safe place. She would steal whatever and take in there and Hot Rod would get so mad because he couldn't get it. That was hilarious. One time I busted out laughing so hard, she was trying to take the loofah dog there and imagine--she had the dog horizontally trying to get into a space that was about 4 inches in width. OMG, it was too funny, she kept trying and trying. I felt really bad for her but couldn't help but laugh.

They are my babies!

They sound like they are too funny for words. Maggie sounds so clever. It's really nice that they have each other to play with.

I got my stairs at Petsmart. They were about $40. They are wooden with carpet inset on the tops of each step (3). The top of each step is removable and gives access to the inside which is a toy box. I really like them and my Yorkie has used them since he was a baby. The back slides up and down too, to give access to the toys inside. The back did have a tendency to come off when you moved the stairs though, so DH glued it into the groove so it wouldn't come off.

I have about 6 of these Foam Ramps that I got from ebay. I covered them in fabric and used the rubber shelf liners has 'traction control' - they really are GREAT
