Indoor dog gates are a great option for inside homes that often have open doors.  If your dog is used to having the run of the place, and you need him or her to be contained for a short time, consider investing in dog gates. Similarily, dog doors are also a great option when your pet used to the run of the house, but you do not want the lack of security that an open door brings.

Indoor dog gates are contraptions that block a dog from passing through a doorway, so he or she is contained in a specific space or room.  If you get the correct sized indoor dog gate, your dog will not be able to jump over it.  Many dog owners prefer using indoor dog gates to simply closing doors, as dog gates allow the dog to see through.  This makes a dog feel less like it is being locked away.

Dog gates come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and materials.  The most popular indoor dog gates are metal dog gates.  Most metal dog gates fit between the walls of a doorway to block entrance to your dog.  There are free standing dog gates that do not utilize the walls in your home to remain upright and sturdy.  Most dog owners prefer dog gates that use the walls for stability, as it is more challenging for a dog to escape.

Many indoor dog gates come equipped with doors, so you can open the gate as you would a dog crate.  This allows your pet to move about your home when it is appropriate, and spares you the hassle of removing and then reinstalling the dog gate before and after each use. Dog gates are also often used in dog training and behaviour.

Generally speaking, indoor dog gates are best for smaller breeds, as it is more difficult for these dogs to jump over dog gates.  However, there are indoor dog gates available for larger dogs, but they are more expensive.  Only you and your dog can decide if dog gates are right for you.
