if you don't do something soon to keep your dog in the house and safe when you open your door you are going to have a dead dog before you know it. All dogs can pretty much out run a human and most think it is a game when being chased so chasing is not the answer since they will most often run further. Of course you need to train your pup but in the mean time before opening it you must keep your dog away from the door. This will be very hard if you have kids coming and going. For me Lola my pup is toy crazy and so besides being VERY careful when opening the door I keep a toy close by, a toy squeaking will bring her back, but once again I do everything to make sure it does not happen. If someone comes to the door I either pick her up or shut her in the powder room, sometimes the person has to stand by the door for 5 min. while I secure her, but oh well her safety is more important |
