jumping the pet gate hello everyone i was wondering if you could gove me some tips, my frankie is jumping the baby gate that i use to keep him in the bathroom, what do you uys use, or what should i do, i thought movng it up higher would work but he gets his feet in the grooves and he climbs over, should i put something on top of thegate? but what? any help please thanks |
What if you you wrapped a sheet around it? If you are good at sewing you could make a sleeve for it.. something where he couldn't get his paws in the little holes. |
hey yeah i never thought of that. ill try that now as he hates his crate |
If all else fails, try two gates..one on top of the other.. Dawn |
good idea to, so far so good i out a towel at each end of the gate and stick it between the door jam and the stoppers that hold the gate in place and hes been in there so far, we went to the movies last night and when we got home he was at the door waiting on us silly goose frankie |
When Bengi started to clib the baby gate I put cardboard on the side of the baby gate he was facing. Then he started to jump it, so now I'm using a piece of plywood almost 4 feet tall! |
I think Tootie is part CAT! He got over ours too, I got a taller one, he got over it too.. I resorted to a "NO" method with him. I sat outside the gate and when he "touched" it, I lightly hit the gate and told him NO... finally, after a million tries he decided it wasnt worth it anymore... my lab was trained from a baby, she can WALK over them but will not even attempt it... I dont know what I would do without my gates.... |
When Kona and Bernie started jumping over the gate, I used a 2nd one and placed it on top. I think then it was too high for them to climb and then jump over. |
Rocky (5.5lbs) can clear 2 stacked baby gates :yay_jump: when Sunnie's in heat. We now use the ex-pen with a wire top. He's the only one who goes over the gates, the girls behave. He climbed the curtains :monkey2: when he was a baby. |

I have the same problem. If you find a solution please post it! Nancy |
Let me tell you, I have a climber just like yours. I had a small kids gate and was having the same problem you are. I bought a larger size placed plexi glass inside the new one that kept him inside for a while. He figured out to jump over . I had to be smarter then him.. I use the new gate with the plexi and place the old gate on top and trust me he can not get out. I do not trust him enough to run the house when I work. I did a thread on this so you may try the search engine. |
