We love our furry friends, and having them around is nothing short of a blessing. But there are some places they simply don’t belong. However, getting them to listen is not always easy! No matter how well trained your dog is, it has an instinct that cannot be tamed. Luckily, there are still solutions available to you.
And no, they don’t involve weeks at intensive and expensive dog training classes. The solution is far simpler: install a dog gate. They’re easy, low profile, and very effective. So let’s take a look at the top five reasons to install a dog gate in your home.
Dogs don’t always respect boundaries like people do – a dog gate will help enforce boundaries
The most obvious reason to install a dog gate is boundaries. Unlike people, dogs don’t always respect boundaries. Being the beautiful animals they are, they simply want to be around you all the time. And 95% of the time, that’s great! But everyone needs some space at some point.
Whether you’re cooking, entertaining, or simply relaxing, sometimes you don’t want a big dog jumping on you. So why not enforce your boundaries the easiest and most effective way you know how: with a gate! You can still let your dog come and go when it suits you. But when it doesn’t, you’ll have all the space you need.
If you live near a busy road, installing a quality aluminium dog gate is a must – here’s why
Of course, personal space isn’t the only reason to install a dog gate. If you live near a busy road, as many of us do, then a moment’s inattention can spell disaster for your dog. With cars flying past at 60km/h, your street is no place for a canine adventure. But, by the same token, you can’t have your eye on your dog at every moment of the day. Our advice: go for the perfect compromise with a dog gate. With a dog gate, you get the peace of mind that comes with knowing your fluffy family member is safe.
Some dogs are better off in the backyard than the park – a dog gate will help keep them in!
Some dogs are a little friendlier than others. So it goes without saying that certain dogs do better at home, than they do down at the local park. If your dog has trouble socialising with other dogs, or people, you may prefer to exercise it at home. So why not build the perfect play space for your dog, using a dog gate? You can have your very own dog park that caters for your furry friend’s needs – is that easy!
<H2>Dog gates are low profile, so you can keep your dog in without feeling trapped yourself!</H2>
When it comes to gates, fences, and other boundaries, we often hear one concern: will it make me feel trapped? Our answer is always no! Fences and gates should never make you trapped. But, by the same token, they do need to serve their purpose and keep your dog where it should be. Luckily, dog gates walk that line very effectively. They’re low profile, and inoffensive, so you can enjoy their practical benefits, while ensure that your home looks inviting!
<H2>An aluminium dog gate will last a lifetime – here’s why that’s important</H2>
Finally, let’s talk quality. Aluminium dog gates last a lifetime, and there are many benefits that come with that. Firstly, there’s the obvious one: you won’t need to replace it! But there’s more to it than that alone. The most important thing about your dog gate is reliability. You need to know it won’t deteriorate, or become compromised. Unlike timber, aluminium does not rot, corrode, or deteriorate. No matter where your dog gate is fitted, you can rest assured that it will keep your dog in place for years to come.
