Please help. Installing dog door.
« on: June 18, 2008, 04:34:22 am »
Hi everyone!  I'm a first time Dane owner!  My baby is a 4.5 month old, male merle named Diego.  I'm installing a dog door for him to escape the Arizona heat (and the rain when monsoon season hits).  All the instructions and tips I've read about how high to install the door say to measure to the bottom of the dog's chest.  Well, Diego isn't finished growing so I'm not sure what height to use. ???  If anyone has any suggestions on how high to make the door I would really appreciated the help!

Thanks a million!

Hi Lacey, welcome!  I'm sorry, I don't have any suggestions for you, but it does sound like a good idea in that climate.  Congrats on your new baby, I bet that Diego is a cutie.
