Choosing the Right Size
To ensure your dog’s comfort, follow these guidelines:
-
Shoulder Height: Measure from the top of the withers to the lowest point of the chest/belly, then add 2 inches.
-
Width: Measure the widest part of your pet and add 1 inch for comfort.
-
General Rule: If you have multiple pets, always size the door based on your largest dog. It is always better to err on the side of a larger door than one that is too small.

By allowing your dog to come and go as they please, you significantly improve their quality of life and decrease the likelihood of household accidents. This model balances strength and weight, ensuring the flap is easy for your dog to push open while remaining durable enough to withstand daily use.
