For animals up to 45 lbs - off many docks and behind many boats (with a little ingenuity) - larger animals may be more secure if you tie flotataion noodle sections under the ramp for added buoyancy, making sure the nose is still submerged. Also tie knots in rope on top of ramp to keep from sliding.
This simple white, box-corrugated, hi-tech plastic ramp attaches to the side of the pool, walled pond, or even most boats and docks. Because all living beings see 550nm (white), animals can see it—day or night—and they "skamper" out on the ramp. A remarkable animal rescue device!

Training a Pet to Use Your Skamper-Ramp®
Just a note about pets and animal safety. While wild animals seem to know instinctively how to use Skamper-Ramp in an emergency, some of our more domesticated pets, like dogs and ferrets, might need to be shown how the ramp can help them when in peril.
We suggest you take your pet into the pool with you and “help” them see how they can climb out of the pool using your Skamper-Ramp. This is facilitated by putting one of their favorite treats on the ramp near the pool edge and another on the pool deck, so they go up the ramp trying to get at the treat. It’s fun to take them in for a second demonstration and see how well they have learned the “drill” during their first visit.
