Coming back down is where I have trouble. (Getting off the roof onto the ladder.(

Looks like a couple of boards nailed to the top of the ladder to make it longer. Looks good to me.

This can't be an animal lover, I see humans getting hurt on these all the time and they are designed for humans.

lukas: Those are a lot of help for humans (but still to no satisfy the acrophobic who has trouble at the transition between the "security" of the roof and the "security" of the both feet and both hands all on the ladder), I don't think the dog is so aided. And backing off the roof onto the ladder is completely un-natural for a dog, I think,

Hught: I disagree strongly. We have and have had cats that climb ladders without human participation or permission. With great agility I might add.

I have been acquainted (one way or another) with a number of dogs that climb ladders, cyclone fences, chicken wire, and in a couple of cases involving Jack Russell Terriers, places that I have no idea how they got there.
