We like to keep the patio door open so Sidney can go out onto the enclosed patio while we are gone for fresh air, plus he seems to like to wait for us out there when we are due to come home. Since the warm weather is starting we've had flies and mosquito hawks coming in, so I thought we cauld put in a doggie door for him.
Well we installed it and he seems to be terrified of it. He's nine months old. Should we give him some time to get used to it, or just try to return it and deal with the insects? Have any of you gone through a new doggie door with your corgis? We've tried to have a person on either side with yummy treats but so far it has not worked; he just backs away. Any advice on training him how to use the door would really be appreciated!
