Anybody have one? Due to my work schedule and my wife's job moving (her commute is going up) we were looking at putting up a chain link fence and an electronic doggie door. Previously, we just left the dogs inside but I think we were lucky that our dogs had big bladders!
We have an underground fence but don't fully trust it if we aren't there to monitor and it doesn't protect our dogs from other animals getting in.
We just lost our beautiful pooch, so we are looking at plans for getting set for having a new dog. I figure this summer is the time to do it. My secretary has one that she says works great but I'm looking for anybody with experiences with them.
The dog wears an electronic collar and the doggie door opens automatically when the dog comes to it and then closes. I would also have a nice dog house outside in case the door malfunctioned the dog would have a place if the weather was bad.
Another option is a dog walker which probably would be better for the dog, but in the long run that would be more expensive and we'd have to let someone else have a key to our house, which I'd rather avoid.
