A quick trip to Home Depot fixed that. Now the closet is "child-proof". Next on the child proofing list: Kitchen Cabinets.

She IS treat motivated, learning several new tricks her first couple of weeks with us. She sleeps on the bed, and first thing inthe morning I take her out She almost always goes 1 & 2. Treats and Praise seem to go a long way. However stern "NO's" are like talking to brick walls. Just ask the 3 pair of shoes and 1 pair of boots she has destroyed in three weeks. And it's the NICE shoes... never the $5 flipflops from Walmart.
