Hi, I am Sally, Willow is my Medical Alert Service Dog.
I see Hennessy has zippers on their hammocks now days. I am thinking about trading my unused Expedition for something with a zipper.
Question 1: Are the zippers reliable? I think perhaps a zipper would make for easier exits. I do not think there would be enough room to kick open the seam with Willow and myself inside the hammock. I would also like to be able to see the sky on a clear dry night if we ever get one. I assume I could fold back the No-see-um netting on the side zip model.
Question 2: I am not sure which model I want to upgrade to. Willow reached her adult size this winter she is over 100 pounds. I also gained weight recovering from shoulder and knee surgery.
My ENO double worked for naps last year, however we are over the weight limit, I would think, and a nap is one thing and a full 8 hours is another. I sleep cold she sleeps warm.
What kind of problem might we have with the very ample hammocks besides the weight issue?
I thought of making a hammock for Willow and leaving her under my hammock. I do not think that will work. I worry she might wander, and also the bears are more apt to bother us if she is outside of my sleeping situation. Bears seem to be drawn by dogs, so far we have not had serious problems as long as the dog is kept very close.
Thank you for your constructive suggestions. SS
