I only ask because my last puppy was a Pomeranian and she was able to scale this height successfully much to my amazement.

Thanks in advance.
I got Buddy when he was 3 1/2 mos. Put up a baby gate (27") high and when
I came home from work he was on the other side! He has springs on his feet
I found out fast. I had to use 2 gates one on top of the other.
He is now 2 1/2 and has the full run of the house but still jumps like a cat.
