Dog gate no match for Blue Heeler (nanny cam)

Scout decides life is better on the other side of the metal dog gate. A 55 pound Blue Heeler decides that a dog gate will not keep him in the laundry room. His ribs are a bit sore but he seems to be fine. I sent an email to customerservice@fourpaws.com to let them know about a "possible" design flaw.

Blue Heeler's are not meant to be locked up. Or left alone for that matter.

@Orclos1701 You are absolutely correct! In a perfect world, I would be a millionaire and would never have to go to work. Too bad I can't take him to work with me. Thanks for the insight.

What's on the other side of the gate that s/he wants so bad?

[gvandenb]

@ralphthylo nothing but "freedom" on the other side of the gate. Freedom is defined as having free roam of the house.

love how he comes back to check the scene of the crime. Prob thinking i wonder if they will notice

If no dog can do it, a Heeler sure will.

Gotta love Heelers. Humans in canine form I tell ya. My Heeler thinks he's human 90% of the time. So ridiculously smart.

@DAVID0665 I'm sure gvandenb realizes that. My blue heeler is amazing and a perfect pet and she's a house dog, I give her all the exercise she needs and I'm sure that one gets it too. When school starts she's left alone in the house up to 7 hours or more/five days a week and she's still perfect, not even domineering or anything. Also were in a city, average size yard, anddd she's still happy..

We have two blue heelers in Panama. The locals think they're jackals- go figure! Prior to these, I always had Ger Sheps and thought there was no dog smarter. I was wrong. These guys are problem solvers extraordinaire.

took him a while...but I never doubted his will...oh what videos we would see if we had cameras everywhere...very cool dog

[quinnrin]

I love how he sits stuck for a second like....damn maybe not such a good idea

[OldieAska]

oooo poor dog !

[zuzugirl4ever]

Know-it-alls are such a pain in the ass aren't they?

[TianaLucy]

my dog (i have a video of her on here) she lives inside to sleep at night and every now and again tries jumping over the gate.

@gvandenb they should put a warning on the box when buying the gate "NOT ACD proof"
