NICHOLASVILLE, Ky. - May 29, 2025 - PRLog -- When a pet owner in Northern California lost a beloved Sheltie to a tragic drowning, it sparked a life-saving invention that has now become summertime essential for dog lovers everywhere. That invention is doggydocks®—a floating dog ramp designed to make water access safe, easy, and fun for dogs of all ages and abilities.
Originally crafted out of necessity in 1998, doggydocks® was created to give dogs a way to exit lakes, pools, or boats without being lifted by their owners. After a few years of testing marine materials and custom fabrication, the final design was featured at The Atlantic City In Water Boat Show.
The doggydocks was an instant hit, and at the time, there was nothing like it on the market. 27 years later doggydocks® is still considered the best water ramp for dogs. Unlike new products that are being introduced, like inflatable dog rafts or steep, slippery ladders, doggydocks® simulates a natural shoreline—allowing dogs to walk in and out of the water with ease. It is particularly helpful for senior dogs, dogs with joint pain, and any pet owner concerned with water safety.
"It's more than a dog ramp—it's peace of mind," says the inventor and founder of PupGear Pet Products. "We've had customers tell us that doggydocks® helped their aging dogs enjoy the water again, and even saved their lives."
Today, the product is praised not only as a life-saving safety solution but also as a canine crowd-pleaser. Pet owners often report their dogs using doggydocks® like a springboard—leaping off, swimming back, and racing to do it all over again.
With over 27 years of field use and product refinement, doggydocks® continues to outperform imitators such as inflatable rafts and dog ladders. When given the choice, dogs always go back to doggydocks®.
