Dog door ?; RE: Colors that dogs notice

[Dr Fear 1286]

So we got a new back door to the yard and it has a dog door on it. I only want to use it occasionally. They have an air conditioned room in the yard off the garage, so they don't need to be in during work hours.  There is a dog door to the room off the garage, so they think the one to the house is always open and they have been hitting it with their heads. My idea is to put colored duct tape on the dog door insert so they can see if it is closed, but I don't know what color to use.  I did some googling on the color spectrum dogs can see and I think that bright yellow may be the best bet.  Anyone have experience or thoughts about this?

rainbow color.  Just to be sure

Why do you want to use the dog door occasionally?  Too drunk to walk upright and turn a door knob?

Paint it like the inside of your house and set up a camera.

So you're saying that if you left things alone, your dogs are too stupid to eventually think about checking before running through straight away?

I'm married and these are her dogs, that should explain everything.

Put a doggie dick pic, so they sniff first.

Asshole colored?

Bathtub?

just trying to be helpful. Have you had a doggie door b4? There are downsides, but I'm single, so I don't care.

Have you tried posting a sternly worded note on the door?

Why are you calling your raccoon door a "dog" door?

[Southernthunder 38]

Buy helmets for the dog.

I believe the proper inoffensive term these days is trash panda.

What’s the setup for this?  So you air conditioned a dirt patch?  Or is it like a huge dog house..

There is a detached garage with a small 35'x10'-ish room on the back that is not accessible from the garage.  It has a door that opens to the fenced yard.
