Solstice Inflatable Pup Plank Dog Water Ramp – Pool, Boat & Dock

Product Description

Make swimming safer and more enjoyable for your dog with the Solstice Inflatable Pup Plank Dog Water Ramp. Designed to help dogs easily enter and exit the water, this portable floating dog ramp is ideal for swimming pools, boats, pontoon boats, docks, and lakes.

Whether your dog loves swimming at the cottage, jumping off the boat, or cooling off in the backyard pool, the Pup Plank provides a convenient way to climb out of the water without needing to be lifted.

The innovative design features a weighted mesh entry ramp that sits just below the water's surface, allowing dogs to swim onto the platform and climb out using the textured, claw-friendly EVA traction pad.
