The pets' route features narrower treads and shorter risers than the adjacent one for humans, making it more suited to canine strides.

This also means the dogs' staircase is nearly twice as long so it curls round the back of the TV towards the front door.

We've previously featured a house where shelves create a route for a pet cat, as well as a house with a ceiling ledge for a cat to curl up on.
