DIY Small Dog Steps

Provide your dog with a small set of stairs for easier access to the couch or bed! Cut the pieces of wood needed for each part of the steps. Into the top step sides, drill two pocket holes, then attach those side pieces onto the bottom step side pieces with pocket screws. Attach the front pieces on each step, then attach the top pieces. Paint or decorate the structure and set the stairs somewhere that your dog will feel comfortable using them. If needed, put a rug in front of the stairs to provide your dog with added traction when jumping, and consider covering the top of each step with a carpet square or piece of a rug for added traction as well.
