Why don't you build a small zig zag ramp?

I thought about that also but I would like to not be involved with getting them up and down.  I would love to have some way for them to go out the door and down their section of yard without my needing to go. 

I did talk to an contractor who suggested enlarging the porch but stepping it down into two new levels having a total of three which would make it easier for them and roomier for us.

I had a thought about why not make them an "elevator" out of a kennel, they step in and you have rope and pulley tied to it at the top and you raise them up or lower them down, chi's and maltese are so smart they would soon be telling you when they wanted to go up or down : )

<~~~Hope the image comes through.

I have been thinking about making it a little easier for my dogs.......3lb chi and two maltese to get up and down the steps which they refuse to do on their own but seem to be having a bit of trouble coming up with a solution. 

I started out with material to make a small ramp on the rail side of the steps and put little speed bump treads to make it easy but it seems to be way to steep for that even.  I have a large fenced in yard but I have also purchased enough picket fencing to fence off a safe area for them at the bottom.  Currently the dogs use a pee pad on the porch and it works great however the porch is small and it leaves little room for us. 

Any other ideas?
