This Smart Dog Door Solves One Problem But Creates Another

Buy a HighTechPet Roll up door

I was tired of being a full-time doorman for my dog.
You know the routine.
Out. In. Out again. No wait actually back in.
Repeat forever. So I tried to fix it with a smart dog door.
And to be fair… it actually works. When everything is going right, it feels like one of those rare gadgets that genuinely improves your life.
But after living with it for a while, and especially after taking it through some cold weather, I realized something:
It solves one problem… and quietly introduces a few new ones.
This is the High Tech Pet automatic dog door, and in this video I walk through what it’s like to actually install, use, and live with — including the parts that don’t show up on the product page.
Because once you cut a hole in your door… you’re committed.
If you’ve used one of these (or something similar), I’m curious. Did it actually work the way you expected?
Also, tell me your dog’s name. Bailey would like to judge it.
