I have an F150 crew cab & a big hairy dog that likes to come along for a ride once in a while. I have seen lots of different hammock/bed styles for the back seat but I would prefer to keep my seats folded up so the dog would be laying on the floor. Has anyone seen or use a full hammock style that would clip to the back seats while folded up and extend to the floor then back up to the backside of the driver & passenger seat? Or any other ideas/
I ran into the same situation. I ended up only lifting up the 2/3rd section of the back seat so she would kind of stick to one side. The ford's are nice because they have the flat floor so they're not tripping over tray's or slipping off the fold out platform (Dodge). My seats were leather so they were easy to clean, the only part that hair would stick to was the bottom side of the seat which was carpeted and she tended to lean against. She was a Mastiff so the short hair wasn't too too much of a problem but i often thought of getting a custom cover made out of a plastic or vinyl material that would just velcro to the bottom of the seat when it's flipped up.

I wasn't sure if I worded it properly for anyone to understand what I was actually looking for but you totally got it lol. At least you had leather, I have cloth and I can see it being an issue. I like the Hmmock style but from what I can see it looks like its only made for when the seat is folded down.
A custom one with Velcro like you say would be a good idea
Our welder is in the process of building the same thing. Aluminum frame that's going to be upholstered. He wants it to fit while the seats are folded up. That's one lucky boxer, but he spoils him. Getting up there in age.
Cheap bedsheet from Winners/Homesense, a pair of scissors and a sewing kit out of a hotel room. You should be able to make a “deeper” version of your hammock style pretty easily and cheap.
I use a blanket also on the large part of the seat( F450), but it's not great. If I put him on the floor he's up on his hind legs trying to look out the window. If you build a system, please share.
