heehee He opens the door with his nose! quite problematic , but cute and tricky! My friends dog can even open doorknobs with her paws. I agree with the hook and eye idea for now till he is trained. I tried babygates with brooklily and she simply slammed through them like
" is this supposed to stop me?" The front door her training is going great , with sit , wait, and ok. It took a week or so.If Brooklily is willing to learn it , im thinking your boy will too. The back door to the yard , I dont enforce as diligently, because its fenced in, so we are not doing so well there. one hook to keep closed and one to keep open . good luck and welcome!!!
