Living in a two-story house can be a challenge for people with reduced mobility and also for some dogs who no longer move as easily as they used to. Fortunately, there are lifting systems designed to make life more comfortable and accessible. These solutions allow us to overcome the great obstacle that stairs represent.
A viral video on Instagram has perfectly illustrated how these innovations can benefit not only humans, but also four-legged friends. Thus, the Pubity account has shared a clip that shows a bulldog using a small elevator to climb the stairs of his house.
The short but striking video shows the bulldog inside an adapted cage beginning its climb up the stairs. The most notable thing is that the scene is clearly seen from the outside of the house through a window, allowing the neighbors to witness this special and endearing moment.
This ingenious elevator system for climbing stairs not only stands out for its functionality, but also for the independence it offers the dog, allowing it to move freely between the different levels of your house without help: you simply have to enter the cage to begin the journey.
As more people look for ways to make their homes friendlier and more accessible for their furry companions, you’re likely to see more systems like this. But not everyone liked that this bulldog has the possibility of going up and down as he pleases.
Some social media users wanted to remind us that when animals begin to lose mobility, so does their dignity and, according to them, it is not worth offering them solutions: “This is not funny.” However, some have remembered that they also deserve good care.
In a more relaxed tone, other Instagram users have stressed that the turn the machine makes is quite funny because it has a small change in speed: “The turn around the corner knocked me to the ground.”
