DOG-ON WATER RAMP™ Instructions
“The Original Inflatable/Floating Waterdog Ramp”
Distributed by Bear Brained Ideas, Inc. – Made in the USA
Congratulations on your Dog-On Water Ramp™
purchase!
The Dog-On Water Ramp™ is a finely crafted and
very versatile water ramp for dogs. It requires only a few simple steps for assembly and is easy to install and use.
Your new Dog-On Water Ramp™ is constructed of sturdy, durable materials that are gentle on dog’s feet, joints
and muscles. Dogs love the independence it gives them and enjoy having their own place - off the boat or dock - to
shake off, sit and rest between uses.

Assembly
NOTE: See inflation instructions on following page and
partially
inflate tubes prior to assembly – fully inflating
them after Step 5 below. (The spreader bar will not fit into the pockets with the tubes fully inflated.)
1.
Straighten the two flotation tubes and lay them out with the long straps at the top. On each tube, the words
‘Dog-On Water Ramp’ should be facing up (and slightly to the
outside) and the long hook & loop strips will be on the inside
next to the mesh ramp.
2.
As pictured, place the deck at the top end of the tubes, above the
straps. The deck’s raised ridges should be facing up and the
mesh ramp and spreader bar will be at the bottom.
3.
The Traction Mat that was shipped loose with the unit should be
placed on top of the deck at this time, aligning the slits with the
deck holes, prior to attaching the deck to the tubes (Step 4).
4.
Attach each tube to the deck by threading the two long straps on
each tube through the appropriate deck holes. Feed each strap up
through the outside deck holes, then back down through the
inside holes, (see arrows on illustration), then under the tubes
and thread strap into the strap locks. Leave approx 3” to 4” of
the strap extending beyond/below the strap lock. This allows you
to make adjustments and to assure the straps don’t overly
constrict the tubes as they are being inflated.
5.
Insert the two ends of the spreader bar all the way into their
respective pockets at the bottom end of the flotation tubes.
6.
Attach the sides of the mesh ramp to the flotation tubes using the
hook & loop closure strips. Start at the deck end; align and
overlap the hook & loop and press together firmly. Repeat on
the opposite side and then finish inflating the tubes.
