Nandini Rathi / March 29, 2012

When it comes to indulging in luxury for your four-legged pooches, our modern day options are truly innovative and spectacular in every aspect possible. We had earlier seen some options such as the Postmodern Roller bed, or the Urban Tail Pet resort which had a fully equipped gym for your four-legged friends. Now Insurance Company ‘More than’ has created something which will help your heavy pooches move about on the stairs; the dog stair lift. Priced at $8,000, this lift will help overweight dogs travel staircases which they would otherwise find tough to travel on. The other reason it should be a prime attraction, is that it’s a first of a kind in the world for overweight pets.

Dog stair lift

With modern times, health has indeed taken a backseat for us humans, until the latest revelations which prove the same for animal. A report in the UK predicts that around 46% of the total dog population will be overweight by 2022. This means that the unhealthy lifestyle and obesity issues aren’t restricted to humans alone, and even their 4-legged best friends are already with them. Hence, for those dogs who are already suffering from this problem, the More Than stair lift will help them climb the long stairs, which could be a matter of struggle on everyday terms.

All the dogs have to do is sit in the basket of the stair lift case, and the owner has to push a button located at the lower end of the machine. The basket then carries the animal up the flight of stairs and stops at the designated point, where the animal than then un-board. For this to take a place, a special channel would be placed on the stair case side, which shall bear the task of transporting on the upward and downward path. Though not an ultimate solution, but it certainly looks like a significant addition in the world of pet care management.
