I have a 70lb. Boxer and a 4lb chihuahua will they both be able to open the flap to go out?

I have a 35 lb dog that I got the door for, but she had puppies and we kept one and at 7 weeks ol the puppy could push the flap and go out and she wasn't even 4 lbs yet or very coordinated so I would say your chihuahua should have no problem!

My concern would be whether the Chihuahua can leap up to get over the lip at the bottom? I would contact Ideal directly as they should know.

We have a medium door and it just fits my medium dog which is a boston terrier. But I do love this product. I will never be without one again.

what I would recommend is to measure the dog from shoulder to shoulder and you would get a better idea as for the chihuahua it's going to be difficult since it's such a big size difference and keep in mind that there is a 3-4 inch step over.

I have a 4 lb chihuahua and it accommodates him fine, I am thinking up to 10-12lbs should be ok.

yes it would work, i have an 80lb boxer that fits through easy, mount it a little higher and they will step through just fine..i would suggest to attach the door, pre-drill holes throughout and use rivets to hold it together, it will come apart if you dont

I have a 9 pound chihuahua that takes up most of the basket If you had two pups @ 3-4 pounds each and ......they like each other. They may have enough room.

Our dogs have no trouble using the door in either direction--the magnetic strips are secure, but release easy enough. I would not think a small dog would have any trouble: our two 12 pound cats enter and exit very easily.

We have a 60 lb. husky mix who fits just fine through the doggy door. He is just about 10 months old so he will probably get even bigger and I don't think it will be a problem.

My dog is about 17 pounds. He was a little squished, so I opened up the front flap for him.

I don't now if both dogs will fit, but at five pounds I don't see why not. The top is open, but a sort of 'seat belt' attaches to the collar and secures them in well. You also are right there and have good control of them.

It depends how big your dogs are my pitis medium sized and im sure two dogs would fit comfortable but the door is in awkward locations so you wont have a door for each because it has one door on the side but the other one Is in the front so only one dog has a door the other one you would have to remove the separation fence to let him or her out

So far it holds both my mine a pitty and boxer but it has a zipper in the middle so if you don't buckle them in flip it around so the zipper goes to the back rest area,but they still jump in front but does keep them from falling all over. If you buckle them in it has openings that velco at bottom to get at to pull straps through. Mine just lay down. Hope this helps.

Maybe. My mom has a 2lb chihuahua and I think she can maybe get through. Ours is on stairs and she really can't go up. I measured between the bars and its 2.1 inches so if the dogs head is bigger than 2.1 in than you won't have a problem.

I say no. My dog's larger friends come over and bull through. The two flaps is much better...for many reasons. Plus, the double flap is pretty standard.

If hope you know your sizes give pooch size 4.5deep with flap side two is 2.25 wide and how around it will take about 1 .25 inch I hope works for you, "~"

The medium door will be fine for the terrier but I am afraid the pit bull will have a tuff time getting through it.

Yes. The flap is opened or closed with a zipper. When unzipped the opening is not covered by any type of material or netting so the animal's harness should be secured with the interior clasp.

That would depend upon the size of your chihuahua. We have 3 dogs, the smallest is a 12 pound jackapoo. If he could get through the gate, he would have already. We are very happy with the construction and functionality and purpose of the gate. j

The opening is 12" - 13" wide. So you also know the door does not go all the way to the ground...there is an 8" high section that the doggies will need to jump over. Our 2 little Chihuahua's have no problem jumping over it. Good Luck. We love the fence. For the money it is REALLY a good product...we bought 2 sets so the area for our doggies is larger.
