Snowman9000: I've seen advertisements for dog ramps to help them get into the back of SUVs. Do you think something like that would help your dog?
We have one of those, a PetStep, and it worked pretty well with the pickup truck and fiver. But it's heavy and takes a lot of room to store. I custom built a lightweight ramp just for this MH. I should do a writeup on it. It stores on the ladder. It fits on, and above, the single step we have, and ends just under the door threshhold. We can still use the step and door ourselves, while the ramp is in place. It's pretty nifty. The ramp is 5' long and makes a very shallow, easy angle for the dog. Our door is near the rear end of the curb side, and sometimes on a un-level site, a rear door will be pretty far up in the air. We had the same thing on our fiver. At those times, the ramps can get too steep. With this one, we should be good even in that situation.
