Lol - all your posts have made me realise how strong Northern Inuits are then - as they have broken several of these gates by leaning on them and they, and my GSD's, jump them.

I'm not going to even try gates lol My sister's two collies have worked out how to open them! Suki has already started to try and open doors with her teeth and paws - I'm sure it would just be too tempting to sus out the gate as well. I'll stick to using the crate when I need to!

It doesn't matter what gate I put up, whether its the baby ones or the Higher ones... Chester will always hop over

Just a word of warning...often dog gates that are sold as 'dog gates' are more expensive than the child gates which are exactly the same...may be worth visiting your local mothercare or something....

The proper dog gates are quite a bit higher than the child gates and there is a larger gap where the gate closes so you don't accidentally trap a tail.

there is alot of difference in size, and worth the extra £10 or so.

All the ones I've seen and compared have been pretty much the same, including the same photo of the gate, with a dog rather than a child behind (same dimensions etc too). It's possible some manfacturers have done that and maybe others have actually produced a proper 'dog' gate, perhaps it's just the ones I've seen. It's worth doing a fair amount of shopping around in that case.

dunno then mine is like the 1 in the picture and about 3ft tall, ours never attempt tp knock it down etc which they could there must be other types out there.
i still think they are worth it for the extra height i need it worth mine. a normal baby gate is too small they would look over it.

Only a small picture, but we have this one, it extends to 5' wide, although it's sold as an outdoor gate, we have ours indoors.......Argos again.
