    I wouldn't bother trying to snug up with a dog that size. Neither of you would be very comfortable. I have enough trouble with a 70lb dog and I'm only 120lb.

    How about a CCF mat on the floor right...

    Good job! My dog didn't take to the hammock well the first time around so keep at it. He still doesn't like it but when it's cold I make sure he stays with me for both our sakes LOL.

    Wish I had a garden to test it out in. Unfortunately we are having a bit of a cold snap so I doubt I'd last out there. Will wait the weather out and take it out to the woods later this month.

    I stick 2 sticks into the ground and put my boots on them (upside down.) They stay dry even if you leave them out in the rain.
