Re: Dog Safe Cage? Any Ideas?

My dog isn't allowed upstairs, where the pigs are, but these are the safety precautions we have taken.

1. A baby gate is up at the bottom of the stairs 24/7. When we aren't home and when we are home.
2. The door to my room (with the piggies) is cut in half so that the bottom half can be closed while the top half is open for proper ventilation.
3. The pigs will be moving to a closed cage in March.

You always have to be prepared. I might post a picture of the door soon. My dad designed it for the pigs' safety. We know what my dog can/would do if she got the pigs. When we bring them outside/inside/downstairs, she has to go into the backyard. My mom saw her kill a rat. That's why she isn't allowed interaction.
