I understand completely that a dog door is not a option for some for a variety of reasons. Security, unwanted critters and probably more that I'm unaware of.
Toad toes thieves suck. Years ago I came home from work and some small children were playing with the Collies going in and out of the dog door. I knew the family of two of them and their neighbors children. Another funny incident my sister had flown in from California and was going to go to the house until I got off work. My old door stuck a little when it rained but was not locked. She thought it was and crawled through the dog door, had a good laugh about that.
In the eighties I went to California to visit her for the first time. She gave me a lecture about taking the keys out of the car and locking it. I came from a small town where it was common to leave the keys in the vechicle. Mom and Dad lived in the same house for 30 years and never locked their front door. When I went to sell the house I had to have keys made. Different times.
