Question by MMD: How do I stop my dog from getting out of the fenced yard?
I have a 3lb chihuahua. She can fit right between the gates in my backyard. I always have to put stuff in front of the gates so she can’t get out, but it is not so easy to remember sometimes. Is there something you can buy to fill the gap between the pole and the gate?

Can you help? Leave your own answer in the comments!
