Suggestions for dogs in the H3
I have a Chow-chow mutt, he weighs approx. 85 lbs. He has a hard time getting in and out of the H3. I am looking into some type of ramp system or something similar that would work. Anyone has any suggestions?

LL Bean, Orvis, and Cabella's all sell dog ramps.

Got a 80lb Golden. She is OK with the step tubes. Easier in than coming out. Milk Bones helped at start up.

Re: Suggestions for dogs in the H3
Bet some dog in heat scent under the seat would get him moving on up into the truck with no problems at all...

Re: Suggestions for dogs in the H3
I bought my 3 for my Border Collie, for his last last few months with us. We bought a ramp on line (we Googled it)that folds up and made out of hard plastic with traction. About $150.00 I think it was.

Re: Suggestions for dogs in the H3
Here's my happy dog on his first trip in the H3!
His only complaint was there is no heated seat in the back!

You mean the "hot doggie seat" isn't an option? How's the puppy been? Haven't seen either of you since Texas Canyon back when you had your Jeep. Do you still have the Jeep? How bout the girlfriend with the Vette? I'm putting my CE up for sale this week if you guys know anyone that's looking for a C3. |

Here is a picture of my dog.
I am looking into buying that plastic ramp. I saw one at Petsmart the other day but I wanted to check to see if there are other options. |

Re: Suggestions for dogs in the H3
It may be easier for your dog to jump in through the back door?
Maybe a milk crate or step stool would help? Or make a ramp the hooks into the trailer hitch?
Is your dog old or heavy or both?
My dog can jump into the back seat but sometimes slips on the metal sill.
I lift him out of the H3 most of the time since I had a dog tear an achilles tendon on his front paw (no fun).

Re: Suggestions for dogs in the H3
My dog can jump in and out thru the back door. But I would rather not have him do that since he falls down so hard when he jumps out and sometimes when he jumps in he barely makes it.
I was looking into getting something like this:
