We intend on taking our dog with us soon on a short trip to see how she goes. (A test trip for our big trip in 2015.) She is a Border Collie and is starting to show signs of soreness in her front legs in the morning and we think it is from her jumping on and off our deck, which she loves to do when fetching her ball. We will be carrying her in the rear of our cruiser, which has a cargo barrier, and I made a wooden ramp but it moves a lot when she runs up and down it and this puts her off a bit. Just wondering if anyone has a better idea for a ramp. It needs to fold up to slide sideways into the rear. Thanks for any suggestions, Kevin
