Doggie Steps
 

Someone mentioned they found the doggie steps at Walgreens for $10... Well I finally made it there and they still have them. Great deal for the price. We spent $40 for 3 sets of the other brand. I bought 2 of these but I'll probably get another 2.

Thanks to the YTer who posted about them! :thumbup:

Yes they are!

Does anyone know how high the steps are?? I coulden't see where it sayed how high they are?? I don't want to buy them unless I know how high they are.
My cocker spaniel needs the steps for my bed. She normally sleeps on the floor on her own bed but lately has wanted up on mine. I think it is because she is older now and her joints her hurt so it feels better to lay on my bed. But she can't jump up on my bed anymore, she use to when she was younger. And I have a hard time lifting her up and it is really hard on me. Yet if I don't lift her up she ends up hurting herself trying to get up to my bed.
So I saw some pet stairs at Walmart for 19.99, the as seen on tv ones, but it never said how high the steps were.

wow thats a good deal...

i was gonna get this one from this site...its like 15 bucks but I wouldn't have to wait for the shipping....

The ones from Walgreens are about 12 1/2 inches high. If you need them higher you can always put them on some kind of a platform or on a strong flat box, thus adding another stair.

Our bed is really high so hubby put one set on top of a heavy duty crate (upside down) and attached it. Then we set a second set in front them - it works great for Mia. We're going to attach the the front set - just haven't yet. I always check them for Mia and make sure they stay close. I'd like to see someone make some replacement covers for these out of some better fabric... :D

Walgreen has their dog steps on sale for $10 right now 3/23/07. I have purchased the expensive all foam ones and I have purchased the plastic ones and frankly I would tell you to save your $$$ (unless you stub your toe all the time :p )and buy the plastic ones. If you travel you take the plastic ones apart and put in your suitcase.

My gang ranges in size from 3#'s to 15#'s and everyone can get up on the bed using these stairs.

Just wanted to thank you guys!! I finally made it to Walgreens last weekend, I know it took me awhile but we don't have any Walgreens close by. And they still had the stairs for $10 so I decided to buy them.
The stairs were too short for my bed, although all Peppi had to do was climb up a little, she didn't even have to jump. But she coulden't even do that!!
So I added two boxes, one for Peppi and one for Scampers since he coulden't quite make the first step. It took her maybe 2 minutes for me to teach her what they were and how to use them. Now she uses them all the time!! She is so happy she has the stairs, she can climb up or climb down them anytime!! She just loves them!! Of course I think it has gotten to her head a little, "I am so spoiled I have my own stairs to climb up on the bed!!":rolleyes:

I am so happy that it worked out, no more lifting a chubby Peppi!!:p
Now if only I could teach the others to use them!!
Scampers can't jump up on the bed, he is not much of a jumper. So I am trying to teach him but he is scared to death of the stairs. But I have gotten him to the point to where if I put him him on the second, since there are now four, he will go up the rest of the way real fast, still being scared to stay on them for more than 3 seconds.:rolleyes:

Destiny and Trixie won't use the stairs at all and could care less. They don't really need it as of yet because they are jumpers and jumping up on the bed is a piece of cake for them.

Again, thanks everyone for the recommendation and suggestion, it was greatly appreciated!!

i need to go get that for my babies too !! ;)

I went looking to get them in Houstons Walgreens and of course they didn't have any lol - it's the same with Walmart - Target and other big stores...for some reason none of them carry the cute stuff that you guys have being sold near you :(

Chanel was limping the other day (she's NEVER limped before) and I decided to rig steps for her near my couch - after 2 stores and nothing... I gave up.
