I've searched all over the forums and online and still trying to come up with a Dog Ramp option to get my 100 lb Golden Retriever into our brand new Intex Rectangular Ultra Frame 12 x 24 x 52 pool. We are not installing a deck. I would like to either buy or DIY something that will allow my dog to get himself in and out of the pool without spending a couple thousand on a pool deck.

Possible Materials I have to work with on hand: I currently have the Confer 7200 A Frame ladder (locking section not being installed). We also have the original Intex ladder sitting in a box. I also have a 72inch aluminum dog ramp (with plastic tread) and a 6-foot (very HEAVY wooden) climbing wall detached from our old swing set.

I am willing to spend up to a couple hundred dollars and DIY a custom ramp if anyone has any suggestions.
 
These are old pictures and ramp but it worked well for 2, 40lb Aussies- wood ramp covered with rubber matting on outside, old diving board in pool, used noodle foam at base to protect liner.
