My dog is 12 yrs old and he is now finding it hard to get up on to the sofa so i am wanting to know if there is anything you can buy like a little step or something specifically for dogs?!
thanks

Yes! You can buy doggy ramps apparently, which are said to really help. Like this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Heavy-duty-plastic-bi-fo lding-dog-ramp_W0QQitemZ330142020268QQihZ014QQ categoryZ20745QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Some fold up, and they are made of rubber or plastic usually. You can get car ramps too.

Hope you find something that will help him :)

Why not get a caravan step for him - you could cover it in carpet although most are rubber covered and would probably give more grip.

I know you can buy them but why not get a foot stool thats what we have for our oaps it does not look out of place and is easy to move around.

When i was little we had a Labrador that my dad absolutely worshipped,when she got old and could no longer jump up my dad in his wisdom (bless him)sawed the legs off the settee!I can still hear my mum going ballistic to this day,we thought it was hysterical!!

cyanide that is so sweet! I am mpeeing myself with laughter here!

A footstool, or a pouffe, would be good. Going to bear all this in mind, although mine's only 3 so a bit to go yet!

cyanide - that was brilliant.

I got a little ramp for my cat to get up on the bed.
