Dogs :)

Ok, so we have two lovely dogs, mum and pup, well I say pup, shes three now. Not massive dogs, Gracie the mum is a tall Cavachon, but her baby is akin to a miniature poodle in size. However, they love to be on the bed with us. We don't allow this at home and use a baby gate at the foot of the stairs to deter them. However, in the van things get a tad more strategic. We pulled the curtain accross and they managed to get underneath it (the concertina curtain) . We used the table on it's side etc, they leapt over it. We currently use a couple of panels of the puppy crate to block off access, but it is quite heavy so would prefer another lighter solution

Wondered if anyone else has a similar issue and may have a better solution. TIA

(first world problems eh ;lolololol)

Aha, the "nose under the concertina door" at 3.00am...............

We had this with Noodle (9 month old Cockapoo) but a few stern words saw her retreat back to bed. It's difficult as they know you're just the other side of the curtain unlike at home where there's several rooms between you. We seem to have cracked it through perseverance, good luck!

Got all the t shirts. Kizzy and Holly always slept in the Utility Room at home.

I the caravan solid firm training soon stopped them crashing through the concertina door and jumping on our bed. They had their own bed at the lounge end and were happy. However most mornings Kizzy would be sleeping on the front settee, covered of course?

It really is about the training not restraint
