If it was good enough for Ancient Egyptians

Our dog is getting old and is finding negotiating the stairs more and more difficult. I thought that maybe a ramp would help.

So I made a ramp 76 inches long by 26 inches wide from 2x3s and plywood that was lying around doing no good, covered it with leftover carpet and called the dog. She was hesitant going down, but finally took the plunge, it was easier than the stairs, but going back up was harder for her. The slope was less than the stairs, but still pretty steep. I thought she would have had an easier time going up. It didn't work, but was worth the effort. It didn't take too long and I didn't have to purchase anything.
