Mine are trained to sit & stay, they also know the hand sign but Momo ran out once when we 1st moved in. I followed him to see where he would go & he ended up in the elevator room...nowhere to go loll. So I ended up putting up an ex-pen gate, works like a stand free gate. Front Door Barrier-dscn1201.jpg The right side is our restroom so a regular gate wouldn't work for us. This seems to be the best option, so I ordered a small pet gate that's only 15" high. It will be so much easier to walk over the barrier than to swing one part open.

Princess has a really small head too & she can squeeze through a child gate. I was looking for her everywhere & finally saw her peeking through the gates from the other side! widdle monkey

That delivery guy is an imbecile! grrrrr

This story reminds me of Turbo's little adventure. When I left Turbo & Princess w/my aunt, he got out the front door. My uncle went after him & he said Turbo just took off running (TG it's a quiet residential street). While my uncle was running after him, he said all he could think about was how upset I would be. Finally, after running about 2 blocks, Turbo suddenly stopped. I guess he realized that he was alone. Once they got back, my uncle gated off the foyer entrance w/the ex-pen I gave them. My aunt thinks he took off looking for me.
