If so, how do you find it?

Can they be fitted to a upvc door?

I would be grateful for any comments re having a dog flap.

Thanks

A friend of mine does.

I do, and mine is fitted in a UPVC door.

How big is your dog?

Does your upvc door have a flat panel? My problem is our door has moulds on it which are raised from the panel

Thank you

It should be reasonably simple to have the panel replaced with a flat panel and have the dog flap fitted in the flat panel. I have the same problem but glass lower section. I am changing it to flat ply & UPVC to accomodate the flap.

What size is your dog? I have a small and a large dog but thinking of getting a flap so just the small dog can get through as I would be worried about a burglar getting through a bigger flap. Can anyone with a big dog give their views and experience?

Thanks

I have two big dogs and we have the largest dog flap we could buy. My door does have a flat panel on the bottom.

I have a couple of Staffy and an American Bulldog .... they dont come much bigger than her. I would not want to be a burgler with his head through my door with my 3 dogs licking their lips ready for him

I have a small dog flap but it would still be big enough for a child to get through although if the state of my letters that come through the letter box is anything to go by....

I changed my glass panel to 25mm ply at the weekend and fitted the largest flap I could find locally (Pets at home £32) ... two of my dogs are fine with it, but the American Bulldog wont put her head through it. It does have a panel that locks it but a human would easily knock that panel out of the way. A small shouldered person would easily get through it if they wanted to but my yard is double locked and the door is weel out of sight so we should be ok.

I have found a company that does this so I'm getting it done in a couple of weeks as they are on holiday at the moment.

I have a funny feeling my bigger dog will be nervous of it.

A big thank you to you. I had it fitted yesterday through this company and it is great.

Thanks again

I hope your dogs use it more than my big one! The staffy & staffy cross are fine but the american Bulldog will not go near it!

My friend has a dog flap big enough for her belgian shephard to get through. I can get through it (quite handy when she forgot her keys...). I'm 6'2", but not particularly wide and quite 'bendy'.

Both of my dogs are using it thank goodness!!
