We ordered two pet gates for our dogs. We have two rescue dogs that grew up to be 70 and 80 pounds! As they have aged, most of their manners have improved; however, they continue to bark and run at anyone entering our home. These gates have been sturdy enough to contain both dogs without problem. With two six foot opening from the sunroom to the den, this has allowed a space where they do not feel punished or confined. They now "kennel" with just the word. The barking has been greatly reduced and training results have improved greatly. Perfect solution for our life situation.
