Doggie Doors - DON'T DO IT!

Once again... a story about a house that was robbed (this was yesterday) all because someone crawled into the house via the doggie door.  This was not in NOLA... it was in the burbs!  

I can't tell you how many clients we have had over the years that have had this happen.  If your dog can fit, trust the fact... thieves can figure out how to fit.  I had a house with a "small dog door" and I can tell you they shoved a child inside to open the door.  How do we know?  We watched it on video.


We would all like to think that our dog will deter someone... guess what?  They often bring meat, treats - I have seen that on video too.  Oh and to make it better -they went inside the doggie door and they opened the front door and let them out and it took days to find them.  


Lastly, once - one of my Team Members walked into a house while it was being robbed and the doggie door was how they got in.  Please - if you have one... reconsider it. It is like leaving the door open.  Aside from that - If a dog or cat can fit in/out... what other animal can?
