Does this scoot around a lot, or stay in place if the dog is running up and down the steps?

A piece of rubberized/perforated shelf-liner placed under it can keep it in place on a hardwood floor, or on a carpet. I have 3 sets of steps for adult cats, and haven't needed to put anything under them to keep them in place. They have on rare occasions shifted slightly out of place when the cats have been particularly exuberant in leaping onto or off of them, but it hasn't happened very often. It might depend on the dog, whether they would move a lot of not, but I'd think a piece of rubberized shelf liner or the similar type of thing that can go under throw or scatter rugs, would keep the steps in place fairly well.

Stays. In place if it is on carpet but not on tile or hardwood, easy fix , put a piece of a carpet pad that holds carpet in place under it

I have never had the steps scoot. My dog weighs 9 pounds. I really like the steps.

The steps are for my 5 lb cat who hardly uses them. They are on carpeting and do not move at all....for a lightweight cat. But they are very nice looking and well made.

We have for our 13 yr old lab whose has arthritis in his hind quarters. Our steps are quite wide so we keep this off to the side and it works fine for him. I found I have to put 2 small rubber back rugs on it because the surface is just too slick and he slips. The rugs work fine though.

My grand used it on our carpeted floors and she had no trouble with it at all. It mostly helped her to stand and walk while she was learning to steady herself better, but after a while, she just pushed it in whatever direction she wanted it to go (mostly into our furniture, sadly the banging was the best part for her). It never got away from her causing her to fall over or anything. It is very durable and way too cute; also it doesn't take up much room when you want to put it away.

With our 2 dogs, 18 & 23 pound poodles we've had no issues with it staying in place. I've been really happy with it, my only complaint is wish it was water proof/backing was more heavy duty.

The ramp DID slide around quite a bit (~6" step on wooden deck) so I tried putting a wooden cleat under the top lip and against the lower end , but it still moved around so much my elder dachshund would not use it...so I had to return it. It is very sturdy, so I think if you screwed it directly to the step it would stay in place (since it's a brick step that may be a problem) I wasn't sure if I would keep it, so I didn't want to do anything permanent to alter the ramp. ONE OTHER THING TO BE AWARE OF: if exposed to the elements, water collects in the lower "cup" of the ramp, so if you decided to keep it, a simple remedy would be to drill some drainage holes.

Ours doesn't slide around at all. We have two -- one as a boot tray and one as a tray to hold our Golden Retriever's food and water dishes. The trays are on a slate surface. They are an excellent product and value.

There are no treads to speak of - the steps are covered with a thin carpeting. I have a 32 lb dog that negotiates them no problem, no slipping at all on the steps. The only thing I would recommend is if your floors are wood, you need to get some rubber adhesive feet to put on the bottom of the legs and steps. Its smooth so if you have wood on wood they whole thing will move as the dog goes up and down. If you have carpeting you're fine as is. If not, a couple of bucks at your local hardware store will stop the sliding.

My dog, 45 lb Aussie mix, goes from window to window and the hammock stays in place. You just need to make sure you have it set correctly.

It can definitely move, but with the rubber feet installed it seems to stay in place. My 16 month active grandson is here at least 3 days a week. We use the extension standalone to close off one doorway and the play yard (opened up) to block a wide passageway from the living room to kitchen. They both work great keeping him contained.

Yes, it stays up well while running. But after using it for many times, I think it will loosen up somehow.

I think it stays put pretty good. Even after my dog's been laying on it and jumps off, it's still in the same place.

It will bunch up if the dog paws it or a person drags their feet. It is perfect for what it does best, absorbing liquid! These saved me when the washer hose broke on my hardwood floors in the laundry room! Also is great for Oregon rainy season and muddy dog feet when placed by the mud room door.

I have walked up and down it myself and I am "slightly" over 117lb! The bigger problem you might have is convincing her to use it. It has no sides and the carpet is pretty smooth underfoot. My 18 lb Bichon avoids it like it is evil. Yes I tried all the training tips but it didnt work for my dog. So it sits in a corner. The best use we have found for it thusfar has been helping us slide two upholstered wing chairs up to the second floor via our stairway.

It stays up for about half a minute if you step and leave. But you can hold it up if you stepped on it for long...

I placed this ramp over the 4 steps into our den and it worked fine. It went from linoleum down to carpet and didn't slip. The dogs had no problem with it.

The bottom has a soft, black rubber material that will allow it to stay in one place unless your puppy dog moves it. Hope this helps.
