When you have a large dog, or maybe even an older dog, it can be tough to get to get them into the car. This is a problem when traveling to the park, road trips, or even just taking your dog to the vet. So, to streamline the process and make it easier we made a ramp system that pulls out and is placed on the ground so that a dog can simply walk up the ramp rather than be lifted into the car by their owner. We even took canine comfort into consideration and added a bed and food and water bowls to the top of the ramp to ensure that your pet is comfortable when using our product. With few competitors making a design like ours we at first thought it would be hard to find a target audience. We are aiming to attract people with large dogs, as well as people with old dogs, along with older people in general. It can be hard for someone of age to bend over and pick up their dog, even if the dog is smaller. 

The Ramp N’ Go is a specialized product made to make transporting with large dogs less stressful for both the owner and the animal. 

Although our product is primarily marketed to anyone with a large dog. Our target audience is women and the elderly who might have trouble picking up a large dog. This product can also be used in animal shelters in the trucks that are used to bring dogs back to the animal shelter, which will hopefully get adopted. This product is designed to be easy to use for any type of person and any type of dog.

The Ramp N’ Go is a ramp that folds into a dog bed that can be easily stored in a car. The ramp itself folds into a box to minimize the amount of space it will take up. The top of the box is a dog bed, so once your dog goes up the ramp it can lay down and be comfortable in your car. This feature also helps to prevent dogs from panicking and making a mess in the car. The bed is easy to clean and machine washable. Overall the Ramp N’ Go is here to make your dog’s life and your life easier.

For owners with larger dogs, traveling can be a pain. The Ramp 'n Go is designed to make traveling with a large dog easier for the owner and more comfortable for the dog.

The ramp is designed to allow the dog get into car on its own. The owner pulls the ramp out like a drawer. This means the owner does not have to attempt to lift the large dog into the car. The ramp folds out of a bed. This bed gives the dog a comfortable spot in the car while traveling. The bed cushion is made of the softest fabric and most comfortable stuffing. Having a comfortable dog makes traveling easier and more enjoyable!
