I don't know about anyone else's furbutts, but Finnigan finds running through my garage door/front door irresistible. Luckily we live on a dead end. He is trained to sit and wait at all exit doors of my house, but if he's off leash and someone opens the door before I can get to it... he's outta here. No matter how loud I yell WAIT! Its so scary.... if you can get a baby gate to block the doors please do! I don't think you can be too careful in this situation. Good luck!!!
