Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a husky-proof gate to use in the house? I am moving and will want to gate off the carpeted areas. I don't need extra wide, but I prefer the kind that humans can walk through (like a gate inside the gate).

You can generally find some good ones on Amazon for Sub $50.

Amazon.com - Pet gates


The Carlson Ones tend to go on sale a bunch and have good reviews.

Carson - Pet gate

That was the one we were looking at a while back. I think it was like 20 bucks with shipping at some point, but it wouldn't fit the stairs where we normally like to place ours. Do so love the cat door on them though Wink


Either way I would start on Amazon, and read the reviews Smile

I have this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Regalo-Easy-Step-Walk-White/dp/B001OC5UMQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1369833703&sr=8-2&keywords=pet+gates

I do like it alot!
It's the tallest I could find, 30", but if your pup is a jumper, it won't be much help.

Thanks!! I found the same gate in 41" on Amazon. Some of the reviews said that they had a hard time getting the gate to work. Does it work okay for you?

Works fine.
The latch for the gate when closed has a safety that needs to slide in order for the handle to lift to open.

I have 2 of this (North States Extra Tall) gate: http://www.amazon.com/North-States-Supergate-Extra-Bronze/dp/B0038OLMXE/ref=sr_1_27?s=baby-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1369838145&sr=1-27&keywords=baby+gate

I bought 1 for keeping our sibe in our bedroom but needed something easy to use and I had to be able to open it with one hand since I have a baby in my arms a lot of the time. We loved it so much we bought a second one for the bottom of the stairs when my daughter was old wnough to start climbing the stairs. We love them and I like the color more than traditional white or wood gates.

We also have 2 other cheaper wood gates with metal grating from Walmart which keep our sibe contained but they don't hold up to a toddler; which the North States gate does hold up to a toddler shaking it back and forth. Just my two cents.

I have a Carlson walk through pet gate with the pressure mount and it works ok as long as your dog respects the gate, if they jump on it, or push at it there is a good chance it will fall, this is due to a design flaw where the top half of the gate cannot be tightened very much or the gate will not open/close, when the door is closed and locked the gate will be stronger, but I always worry that Storm will knock it over and hurt himself, if something in the room interest him enough So far this has not happened.

I have this one, and I've had it for over 3 years now. We have it in our front enterance hall way so when people inconsideratly open the door without thinking, the dogs don't get out lol.
