Today i got a new door to my room! Its a plastic door, on a slider... It shuts by a magnet.

So, of course my weimaraner has to bash through it, instead of respecting it like a normal door.

What can i do to teach her to respect the door, and not bash through it while i'm at work.
Got the door put up BECAUSE of the dog, I would appreciate it if she could learn to stay in one room while i'm out at work.

Thanks!

Crate?

I would agree with the above poster at this point.
If the dog has behavior issues when your out at work then it's not going to be fixed without you being there. Even then, she's already developed the bad habit so it's going to be tougher to break.
You still won't be able to enforce it when your gone.

Crate or a baby gate blocking the bottom of the door.

I have those doors on a couple closets here and they are pretty flimsy. Does your's have a lock? That could maybe prevent your Weim from bumping open the magnet.

Na, no more crates. There was a fire and my dog would have burned alive inside a metal cage. No chance of getting out to save her life. Anybody ever been burned a bit, just once? Screw and bolt that.
Plus the dogs UN-kenneled presence keeps people at bay from breaking in. My dogs barking face at the window has literally had bad people run away.

Didn't know a dog passing through a plastic door was a behavior issue. That just escalated things..

So, baby gate.. which might just be a perfect idea. Because in any severe emergency, she would be able to escape with her life, or at least have a little bit of a chance. (like a fire)

Also, a friend recommended i use this thing here, and stick it behind the door.

And seeing as my dog is collar smart (result of her experience with outdoor electric fence), just take it off when home. (she doesn't bash through door when i'm home... mainly because shes a cling on dog, and always following me in the first place. And i tend to open doors before i walk through them.

Opinions? Be kind. E collars are NOT "torture devices." If you don't like them, say so in a respectable manner.

And door is cheapest door! No lock! Just little tiny magnet!

It can create problems in the dog has to push it's way through. From there it learns that physical pressure can open things and it will continue to try until the behavior is extinguished from lack of success. That can take a while sometimes.
It's similar to a dog that jumps the fence for the first time. It's found and easy way to get out so until the habit is broken it will continue doing so.

Brianah,
I'm confused. If you like this:

Then why this?

Unless there is a behavioral or extenuating circumstance you haven't mentioned, why create a problem where there isn't one and waste your hard earned money on a radio fence? She's probably just hanging out in your room anyway. Dogs tend to wait for us to come home, hanging out patiently if their needs have been met. She's not inviting her friends over and having a party while you're at work. . Now in the years ahead should you find yourself a parent to human teenagers; I may offer different advice.

My bedroom window is the one i want the dogs head to be barking at if punks pass by and look in. Dog out of kennel, barking at window when the kids from here in the ghetto come up to my window is a good thing.

I got the door put up to keep dog IN the room. Without being crated. So putting the Radio fence behind the door should help keep her IN when i'm not home.

No crates ever again. I dream of my dog burning to death in one, no chance of getting out. Not to mention there was JUST a fire with a local dog trainer that killed many crated dogs. Burned the shepherds to death. This is about 3 weeks after my house fire issue... weird.

Again, i do want her to be able to escape if for instance she was burning to death.

Dogs don't "respect" doors (or anything else) unless they've been specifically trained to. Imagine if this were a swinging saloon door, or a beaded curtain hanging in the doorway. That's the same thing as a flimsy door to a dog. Those might have "meaning" to a person. But in your dog's mind, you've just added a not-too-difficult obstacle for him to get through.

Another analogy: it would be like putting up a 2-foot high fence around your yard and expecting it to contain a Weimaraner. Human sees fence and recognizes a boundary. Dog sees something to step over.

If your dog requires being managed by containment, then he will have to be in a container that contains him. Otherwise, it's a training (i.e. behavior) issue. But it sounds like you have some issues with a dog-proof container. So that leaves changing his behavior. It won't be easy... but you'd basically have to train him to wait for a release command every time he crosses the threshold of this doorway--even when you are home, and then gradually introduce time and distraction (including when you aren't there) to proof this behavior.

I'd buy a tall baby-gate. And put a prominent sticker on the window alerting fire department personnel that there is a dog in your house in case of a fire.
