Trixie Pet Ramp, Black, 40 × 156 cm


Ramping my Maremma
The product is fine and I really should have given it 5 stars. The only glitch, for me, is that it really isn't long enough. I have a Jeep GC Overland. It has a high rear fender/bumper. Parked on level ground/tarmac it's just about okay, although the angle is a little acute for one of my dogs. She has a sensitive hip and is a big dog. Maremmas are large.
