ShaggyRS6 Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 my lab has figured out how to open the kitchen cupboards. For those who have Labs you will know what that means!!! The dog dont get left hardly at all, but today whilst at the vets with the ferret the lab broke in and managed to get a bag of sugar from the back of the cupboard. Any top tips on dog proofing the doors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J@mes Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 get the kind of cabinet latches that need to be pushed in before they release? Or even convert the ***** so that they have spinning hook latches if possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperfection Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 Stick child latches on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ziplex Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 (edited) Our Pointer knows how to open the pantry door and will steal from there when she's home alone...........no doubt spurred on by the Springers. When the mood takes her she's had cakes, biscuits, crisps and a whole (huge) bar of dark rich chocolate , she has a very sweet tooth does Bree We have to make sure all her 'favourite' items are away somewhere else now. Sometimes we'll come home, the door is open but nothing missing so she obviously has things she prefers. No doubt if she were a lab' she'd of been to the vet a few times by now. Only trouble with kiddie catches are the doors open part way, he may try and force his way in and bust the doors off?! Strong magnets/plates so they stay flush perhaps?

ShaggyRS6 Posted July 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 Hmm, I like the sound of the Magnet thingies. I want something that we can put on and off as she wont dare do it when we are in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
