True enough. Used if for my houdini horse years ago, but he figured out how to get around it...so that did not work for him. Haven't had time to fix her kennel yet but I will get to it this week...thing is when she gets out, she is still enclosed in the house. We turned our old house into kennels when we built this house. So the kennels are in the house and I lock all the doors when I leave, so when she gets out, she is still inside and can't get out, but its annoying just the same!
