Skamper-Ramp is a patented water-escape
device that prevents animals from drowning!
Every year in the U.S. alone tens of thousands of family pets needlessly
drown, along with countless millions of other creatures – raccoons,
possums, squirrels, frogs, chipmunks, mice, etc. Pets are family
members! They rely on their owners to keep them safe.
According to the American Pet Association, the odds of a pet drowning,
are approximately one in 1,028 each year in the US alone.... And over
53% of pet owners have a pool and/or spa! The problem is very real but
equally preventable.
Pools, Ponds & Lakes

 |
When a pet or other animal jumps or falls in the water, they
can swim for a while (some more than others) but, without a way
out, they can drown from exhaustion brought on by panic or
fatigue. The fact is, pools are perilous for pets and no pool
owner wants anything to drown in their pool, whether it is a
critter or, more especially, a pet that is considered an
important part of a family! Though some drowning's occur by day,
they occur most often at night leaving the pool owner or
lakefront resident with that cruel surprise of a dead pet or
animal floating in their pool or pond.
If a pool fence or door is left open, if there is no
protective fence or cover, or if no one is around to hear an
alarm when an animal gets in, what then? No matter how careful
you are, there is always the possibility that something can
happen.
That’s exactly why Skamper-Ramps were invented and also why
federal legislation regarding pool safety measures is being
developed and “Pet Safety” is one of the fastest growing
segments in the Pet Industry!! |

In the case of vinyl-lined pools, what could be more
expensive than replacement or repair that is not covered by
insurance but was caused by a frantic animal trying to escape
water entrapment! What saves the day? Leaving a Skamper-Ramp
installed to make sure no critter is trapped and punctures your
liner.
The Skamper-Ramp ® is patented, proven and award-winning
device is attractive, affordable, lightweight and, most
importantly, works--even when no one is there to help!
Skamper-Ramp safeguards against finding any dead animals –
pets or critters – in your pool, allowing them to escape
drowning by exiting the water on their own, providing peace of
mind to pet owners and animal lovers. 100% made in N. America
with pride! |

Horse & Livestock Tanks


 |
The regular size Skamper-Ramp is extremely effective for use
in pasture/water troughs. It allows mice and other small animals
who fall into the trough to get out of the water, on their own,
without drowning and fouling the water.
Horses will not drink water out of a trough that is fouled and
has dead creatures in it, unless confronted with severe thirst.
Skamper-Ramp provides a means of escape for mice, squirrels, and
other small animals that fall into the troughs - keeping the
water clean, save and potable for the horses.
Because the Skamper-Ramp is fabricated from polypropylene
(making it mold, mildew, and algae resistant), it is lightweight
and can easily be flipped in and out of the trough. It works
because it is white--the the one color that all living creatures
see. Since it angles down into the water it is at eye level to
the mice, voles, chipmunks, (even bugs!) etc, who instinctively
know to use to it to escape drowning. The regular
size (for animals up to 45 lbs.) is small enough to not bother
the horses as they drink. |
Boats
|
Dogs can get back on board boats and docks.
With Skamper-Ramp, dogs have a less stressful way to get back
on board and you don't have to wrench your back.
Installation requires a little ingenuity since boats and
docks are so varied.
This example shown is a Super Skamper-Ramp mounted on a
Boston Whaler.
