Having a viral video doesn't mean that much these days. Tiktok tends to make random videos viral and everybody forgets about them in a week

Stair gates are dirt cheap and available in supermarkets. These are too expensive and complicated with zero profit. Fixed with adhesive would not hold up if a big dog jumped at it.

[@tonyadeney1245]

[@susangraham1203]

I don’t know of any gates that actually open with a front door. It is a unique idea that a baby gate doesn’t solve. I like the design of the gate.

That gate looks flimsy. They chose the most docile dog to do the demonstration. I would like to see them use a larger dog that is determined to escape. Adhesive? You must be kidding me.

[@BenjaminGoose]

To be fair you have no business owning a large dog if you can't train it.

[@redacted7634]

​@@BenjaminGoose Although I agree the fact is most people buy a dog and do very minimal training beyond giving paw and sitting.

My neighbor's dogs get out ALL the time and it's annoying. I sent them this video. Maybe they'll wise up and buy one. Not all people are careful like you are. These gates would be good for toddlers too.

[@TheManInBlueFlames]

And then the XL Bully BREAKS the harness and escapes and bites the next ten people they see.

[@caranandrews3491]

Somewhat complex! I use a Baby Gate ( Spanish made )., which can be increased with side panels. Which is Fantastic to use.

[@davidmcloughlin6547]

I'd love to see a series where they remove all the old guard and just have 5 of the newer dragons. People always seem to go with Peter or Deborah if there's multiple offers on the table, which is understandable given their track record, but it'd be refreshing to see the newer dragons get a look in

If a dog suffers from social anxiety, it doesn't mean the owners are bad. My mum's dog is very anxious in some social situations and he strutts about the other half of the time 😂

[@wanderingalba5077]

The dog is a Beagle. Thhe breed is renowned for its ability to track by its phenomenal odour /smelling abilities. Used by customs, FBI, drug police squads. Dont take my word for it, google. That dog was in its 'working mode ' attempting to keep its owner safe if it encountered something unusual. Or just hoping for a random food drop. Either way it is not a form of submissive or anxious behaviour, the dog is exhibiting its strength.
