What Ramp Do You Recommend for Pets Who Need to Enter and Exit the Vehicle?

Question:

I have a 13 year old shepherd who needs a ramp to exit my SUV. Is it possible to unload and flip up one side of the 24x62 etrailer cargo carrier to allow him to use his ramp ? Thanks.

I have a creative solution for the issue. Instead of using the 24x62 etrailer Cargo Carrier to help your dog exit your 2021 Toyota Highlander, I recommend the CargoSmart S-Curve Loading Ramp # 3483086. The reason why I recommend the CargoSmart S-Curve is because it will allow you to complete floor-to-vehicle extension and it also does not require a trailer hitch to set up. This will allow you to use the ramp either in the rear hatch of the vehicle or the front/back seats at a gradual incline. In addition, the S-Curve folds in half in order to transport easily wherever you go. Also, the rubber treads on the ramp are easy on the paws.

Another option is to purchase the PortablePET Twistep Hitch Mounted Step # HE3052. This is a great option of you want to have assistance stationary so that you can just keep it mounted on the trailer hitch. If you need a trailer hitch for your 2021 Toyota Highlander, I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch # e75ZR. This hitch comes with mounting hardware, and they involve drill-free installations.
