The majority of trained dogs will not feel the urge to chew on dog door flaps, or frames, but there are those select few that will chew any material they can get their teeth around. This problematic chewing not only becomes an unwanted expense replacing parts, but also creates an inefficient dog door opening allowing hot and cold air to escape through these destroyed dog door flaps. If destructive chewing becomes a problem Moore Pet Supplies has multiple solutions. There are a variety of dog doors that are considered chew proof featuring heavy duty aluminum frames. Although these dog doors are considered chew proof it does not necessarily mean the dog will not be able to chew on other smaller and replaceable components of the door other then the flap and frame (ie. pile brush, rubber gaskets, etc). Listed below are some of these chew proof options for walls, doors and kennels:
