We take the harness off when no one is home, because the smallest was too big and sometimes one leg gets in the wrong hole. I'm terrified that we will have a fire in the middle of the night, while I'm at work he's stolen, etc. |
Our boys pretty much feel the same way. It took some time, but they now know just to sit when the door is open. That being said, we dont wear collars of any sorts inside. They are micro-chipped as well, not that this is a garuntee by any means. We also have a sign on our door that says we have a dog inside, specifically for the fire dept....right next to the sign that says "protected by a 40. Cal".
They happen to be protected by a 40. cal, but the sign does all the work... they don't necessarily have to be...
on another note, our dogs sleep in a crate. we know just where to get them and we dont worry about them getting into things while we are asleep.
