If it already has plenty of d rings installed its nice to have an assistant when hanging. I instruct people when they pic up their rugs from me to use painters tape to mark the walls with the help of an assistant to make sure they put a nail at they exact location as the d ring as they hold the rug in place by hand, its also nice if you can locate a stud in the wall for the head, if not use a screw in drywall anchor (these are rated to hold 60lbs) as insurance if only drywall in head location.

Mine came with rings under the head and under the paws. Attached to wall with screws in sheet rock and picture hooks. They both look great and have stayed in place since 2005.
