Dog tears lower screen

Added benefit; it keeps the rug rats away from the door too.


We opted for a 1/8 inch Lexan panel. I cut it to fit the open side slots and snapped it into place. That holds it in nicely and it can be removed for cleaning.

Only caveat is that Lexan will break if dropped while cleaning. Grrrr.

I wonder if the pet screen would hold up against my 150# Great Dane with paws bigger than my hands?

Lol! We have a 150 pound Doberman but he has never messed with the screens. He knows how to open the plastic slide so he can stick his head out and see what's going on.

Love to see a photo of your Doberman with your screen around his neck!

It's not a very good one but it's the only one I have on my phone.

No! He is just like a kid, he opens it but won't close it! But he does try and catch the flies that he lets in.....he isn't very good at it so we still carry fly swatters.

Any chance this pic was taken this month? It would a good entry for the photo contest.

We had that issue and at the home improvement store sell a piece of decorative metal-the kind that has a decorative design in it=cut it to size and installed. Lets a little air in.

Sure didn't think Lexan would break by dropping it. We used it in test stands as viewing shields. Have seen it hit with hammers without breaking. Has yours been exposed to a lot of sun? That will definitely make it brittle.
