Hi everyone 2003 LR D2 SE7. I am shopping for a dog ramp for my 100lb dog. She’s getting older and while healthy, I think a ramp would help her get in and out of the LR. Does anyone have recommendations or cautionary tales? I found one on a pet supply website in the $50 range which would likely be cheaper than building it out of wood nowadays​​​​​​. I’m in the $50-75 price range.

 

I had one I bought from TSC (I believe). We had to use treats and patience to train our boy to use it, but once he got the hang of it it was great. We always walked next to him as he walked up the ramp just to make sure he didn't fall but he never did. Now that I think about it, I think the ramp is in the rafters of my garage.

 

anyone else getting the unironic Stair Lift add to the right of the OP?

skip the pet ramp. spend the money and get a pet lift.

 

I have this one for my dog because she was quite overweight when we first adopted her. It works well and she uses it no problem. The only thing is I had to extend the tether to work with disco since there isn't a truck latch in the same position like on other SUVs.

 

No, I'm seeing a YETI add. The cooler company.

What is a pet lift?

 

We have a folding stair set up for our older dog. Works well and easy to use between vehicles.
