Skamper Industries LLC manufactures and distributes the animal rescue device known as Skamper-Ramp® - in two sizes: regular and Big Dog. This patented device (US Patent # 664389, Trademark registration #2867405) is attractive, affordable and most important, it works! Skamper-Ramp safeguards against finding any dead animals in your pool and, in particular, the tragedy of finding your own beloved dog drowned. It also works successfully with docks and boats.

FACT: Over 51% of all pet owners have a pool and/or spa…and that doesn’t include those with docks, boats or live on/near a canal.

FACT: Most people don’t realize that while the majority of animals can swim, they can’t necessarily get out by themselves. How many non-pet owners do you know who enjoy coming outside in the morning and finding dead frogs or other “critters” floating in the water? In fact, frogs are often found in the skimmer basket because they think it is a cave leading out of the water!

FACT: Pools are perilous to pets! Many pet owners try to protect their pet by training it to swim to the pool steps to get out of the water. This works fine in a daylight, non-threatening environment, but at night or if panicked, a dog will panic and forget it’s “landmark”… Animals can not see the steps for the very simple reason that they are under the water! That’s why when a pet or animal drowns it is a preventable accident! No one wants a drowned pet, that is considered a family member in most households, on their conscience….

PROBLEM: Water safety, particularly pool safety is important for pets just like children. Would you leave a child unattended by the pool? Of course not! Children are given swimming lessons at a very young age. Some even as infants.

Certain pets need to be trained how to get out of the water! Even if a dog is a good swimmer it can be spooked and get panicked. Some solutions, like fencing in the pool, using a water alarm (such as Safety Turtle), or having a flotation vest on hand all are wonderful layers of protection. But accidents happen – fences/gates get left open, you may not be around to hear the alarm and you don’t leave a life vest on 24/7.

Dog in Pool

 SOLUTION:  Skamper-Ramp is white and it angles down into the water, enabling your pet–and other critters to see it leading out, day or night, 24/7. Skamper-Ramp provides peace-of-mind because your pet (or the critter you didn’t want to see there in the first place!)can ‘scamper’ out of the water–pool or walled pond, even back on a dock or boat all by itself.

 Dogs are the only animals that have to be trained to use the Skamper-Ramp. Cats, ferrets, rabbits, possums, frogs, snakes, even spiders all go to it instinctively.

 Skamper-Ramp comes in two sizes, both capable of holding 200 lbs: regular Skamper-Ramp , for smaller, short-stride animals frequent and/or emergency use, and the Super Skamper-Ramp, for larger pets with longer stride length and/or for any size pet if used with a dock or boat.
