I used them in the past. They were fine for the dog, it was people who constantly knocked it down. Just wish there was a better way to mount them.
Being in the window and door industry. I've seen a lot of these sliding doors sold with pet doors. Basically the glass is substituted for glass with the pet door. They come in different sizes. Best but pricey option.

Been dealing with a lot since February 14th. Our two Aussie's got sick and our younger, red merle pulled through but our 7 year old blue merle has been having a tough time. After just shy of $3,000 for a colonoscopy and an endoscopy along with another test that I'm a week out of getting the results I finally had enough and had to write a strongly worded email to our vet to figure out what the *&%^ they are doing. Looking at a month and a half of dealing with a dog who has loose stools along with blood. Yesterday was my last straw when blood was just dripping out. I have been told that the dog has a severe case of IBD but there is a chance it is lymphoma. Supposedly the test results I'll receive in a week should be able to eliminate the lymphoma if that is not the issue but where they had been giving him the same medicine with minimal success and the fact that a test they did revealed he has a food allergy, they didn't seem to care or feel the need to change up his plan of attack seeing how the current one doesn't seem to be working.

Needless to say, my strongly worded email brought the vet (who is a internal medicine/gastronomy specialist) calling my wife and the vet through tears agreed we need to get him a new round of medicine and a different plan of attack. She believes he isn't ready to be put down and watching him play with my 1.5 year old and his little aussie sister, I don't think my buddy is ready to call it quits either. Thoughts and prayers would be greatly appreciated for my buddy Maddox. Between this, an earthquake earlier this month, and the pandemic stress, I can't lose this guy. (horrible decision to write this while at work:cry:)

Kora and Maddox. Kora obviously walks through the grass while we mow, Maddox watches from the porch.

Best of Luck to Maddox and your family! Hope the vet gets this resolved soon!
 
Everyone, meet Maverick. He got home, ran around out back, played with his new toy and is currently out like a light.

Just returned from the vet and confirmed what we didn’t want to hear. The lump on our buddy Hogan’s neck is cancerous. Lymphoma to be exact. His body is full of it. He’s acting normal so we’re going to wait until he declines to do any treatments. This SUCKS!
My daughter (who is away at college) will be devastated! She’s his “buddy”.

Been through that. It sucks. He will let you know when its time. Until then, keep him happy and enjoy the time. When that day comes it will suck beyond belief.

Was out making a delivery today and this cute little gal had to come see me.

Trying to get out for our 2-mile walk around the neighborhood every day, today's cloudy sky just looked worthy of taking a picture. We often see deer, turkeys, and other wildlife on our walks, Kai saw something here, but it must have gotten out of site down the hill before I turned around.

It has been 10 years today since we brought our dog home from the Humane Society. They guessed her age was 5 at the time then:1FD72693-D224-4935-8B94-45923876EE87.jpeg

Good luck with this, it isn’t very fun. Love every second you have left with them because they will let you know when they are ready. Our little guy fought for two months and then went downhill very quickly. He definitely fought like hell and then let us know he was ready. I’m still having an extremely hard time with it.

Found out that our 12 year old Husky Pointer cross has terminal cancer yesterday. He had surgery two weeks ago and they removed most of a huge tumour from inside his muzzle and under his nose but it’s grown through his jaw. Vet figures he’s got 4 to 6 weeks... lots of steaks and peanut butter coming his way.

Very sorry to hear that. Enjoy the time you have.
