Default Looking for inside dog ramp with side rails or instructions to make own

We currently use free standing dog ramps that we purchased through Drs. Foster & Smith. But our "old man" is starting to fall off the sides. We think because he now has limited eye sight. We are trying to find an inside free standing dog ramp with side rails....already made or instructions. Has to be something that would look nice. Here is a photo of what we are currently using. Anyone have any suggestions? Even suggestions for adding side rails to what we have?

Maybe you could speak to someone at the woodworking shop to see if they can help.

Check out this site. If practical they might be able to make rails that could be added to what you have.

Does the queen know you have one of her Corgi's?

Just kidding.

I hope you find a home for the dog you were telling us about. Please tell us one more time about the puppy who needs a home.
