We installed a doggy door but fat-ass, our 10 yr old wiener dog, can't make it to the door itself when going from out to in. So.... I built her a ramp today. Took me about 3 hours from design to completed product.
I used scraps from the fence we just put up to build it.

Just going to lay down some sand paper tommorow so she can get some grip and actually make it up the ramp. :-) [Reply]

That is why I will be putting down sandpaper.... give her some grip to make it up the ramp.
Make your middle supports shorter creating one long, but more shallow incline. That should allow Fatass to climb it without sandpaper or nonskid. [Reply]
Looks like you should apply for the job designing the new Interstate Bridge in Minneapolis. You did good. Screw em if they dont like your dog ramp. [Reply]
I'm no construction guru here, but why not just a small box or a step? Seems like it would have been easier. Oh, and there is nothing wrong with a trailer. Is that a doublewide? [Reply]
