How does a child put the puppies in the house? Through the holes in front or is there a back door?

The puppies have to go into the house through the holes in the front. There are no other openings. Also, there are not any inside "floors" or dividers. They fit snugly enough that they are held in place by the door openings.

The inside is one big compartment so all of the slots feed into one open space. The back door can be opened and the contents dumped out.

The entrance is a velcro enclosure, down the front and across the bottom. It is difficult to keep closed as when when the slide is being used, the kids are going through the entrance constantly.

I'm pretty sure you dont need extra holes. There are times that I've left them in there for a couple of days, accidently, and they are fine. But the trap is full of poop. I'm glad you're concerned about their welfare. They are so cute!

No, only a small pet door that can be left open or shut. It is easy to get in and out for an adult as one section obviously opens. I can reach in and pick up my 14-pound Pekingese. No problem!

The divider panel doesn't have a door to it. The puppy can't get from one side to the other without help.

1.) If you got the "add-on" door flap, don't install it until your pet gets used to going in and out of the house. 2.) ALWAYS put your pet's food IN the house - and leave it there. It's sort of like kids, if your pet is hungry, they'll eat.....even if it means going into this new, strange (to them) shelter! Hang in there and good luck!! : )

I think there is room in the medium for a nest box. The only 2 doors are on the front but I think a nest box would go there, look like heck though.

It doesn't need air-holes because the air comes in around the door. I put them out before bed and check them in the morning... they are a little steamy from them being in there breathing, but they have plenty of air for the short time you have them in there... I have never had one seem off-put by an air issue... usually they're just curious as to where I am taking them! LOL! :D

Nope. It could be even difficult for a small (toy) dogs to use the door, since the flap is heavy enough with strong magnets.

I attached one of those dog fences to the front. the bottom door opening is right below the top door opening and I surrounded the whole front with the dog gate (in a semi-circle) and then put mesh on the top. I think you would have to cut the bottom side open if you wanted a run on the hutch side.

It comes with a divider that folds in half for storage. It has no opening but I doubt you'd need one. Is it for one dog or two? That's mainly what the divider is for imo. When training/house breaking a dog you want the area small enough that he/she will "wait" so as not to soil his "den". If you're wanting to put a puppy pad in the cage, you wouldn't need a divider for that. Anyway, it has a divider that folds in half for storage, you open it out to use it.

Yes, there is a solid plastic panel that can be put in place when the door is not being used. How secure it is would be a matter for the owner to decide. If your dog is large or you have multiple dogs, they might be able to force their way through, since they are used to the door and may hit it at high speed when entering. Never mind the tandem entry method. As to keeping out cats, it should be fine. Now, for burglary issues, you may want to increase the difficulty level.

It has holes to screw into the door itself. It fits perfectly and the magnetic bottom sticks together after the dogs come in or go out. We are very satisfied. Although it wont last forever and we will order another when this one wears out.

No, it is one of three ways for your pet to get into the stoller. The black thing above the front wheel is a step, then your pet climbs through the hole. The other ways to enter are through the back and from the top (the mesh window opens up).

You pour the feed in the top, the food funnels down to the bottom. The door at the front the dog uses to get to the food is like a flap-hindged at the top. As the dog eats the food at the bottom more gradually comes down.To get the dog started on the feeder,press the door open and push the feed forward so the door is held open by the feed. They get the hang of it real fast

Hello Natalie, The house is great but does not have ventilation. My dog house is in CA and it gets hot out here also. I usually move the dog house in the shade or I bring him in the house if it gets too hot. One last thought, the dog house is wooden. Holes could be drilled just under the roof overhang to provide ventilation. Hope this helps, Michael
