Does anyone have a design they can send me for a folding dog ramp that I can make out of timber? We have a medium size dog that has rheumatism and requires lifting in & out of the back seat of an Iveco Daily utility.

If any one is interested in Jayco see a bloke called Scott Barker. He will be found in the camper/expanda section. Very honest and reliable. Have dealt with him before and can highly recommend him. Nothing in this for me. Just like to help others. He won't pressure you into something unsuitable.
