While some dogs simply walk up the ramp, others have to be trained to use it.  When training your pet canine to use a ramp, you should start slowly. Even though your dog is a fast learner, start off gradually just in case the ramp is the one aspect that freaks him out. If your dog is food motivated, place a treat next to the ramp. This way, you will be creating a positive association between him and the ramp, so he will believe that positive things happen when he’s near the ramp.\r
