Children do not open the door with the intentions of letting the dog out. Us as adults can get out quicker and know how to maneuver so the dog usually does not get out. Everyone in the family has to be cautious of this big and small. What I think really, really, really needs to be taught is our dogs to not run out. |
I think a mixture of all this is what is needed. My children know to be careful, but the biggest problems have always been my children's friends. And as soon as you get the kids on the block trained, new kids move in, lol. Training the dog, training the kids, and having a baby gate is truly a mixture to cover all problems and errors. I feel almost as though we are in a high-tech lab. . . each level of security must be passed, lol.
