Once your pet is comfortable walking across the ramp in a flat position, try it on your vehicle. Place the angled end of the ramp on the back of your vehicle and ensure all four rubber feet are resting on a stable surface. Encourage your pet with treats and praise to walk up the ramp.

If your pet refuses, you may need to start with a lower surface first and gradually increase the height as they become more comfortable with it.

Never force or pull your pet up the ramp.
