[QUOTE="BillM, post: 3809163, member: 45785"] We've put in a "doggy door-bell" system, wireless electronic thingies from Amazon. I buy the 15lb box of Milk Bones from Sam's Club, and the ringing the doggy door bell to go out, and the one on the outside of the door to come back in, doggy gets a doggy cookie. He's 10 now, which is pretty close to the life expectancy of one of the breeds in his cross... one of these days we're going to have to visit the vet to send him across the Rainbow Bridge, and I'm getting too old to risk breaking my heart again, or worse, breaking the doggy's heart by pre-deceasing him. [URL]https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07W89QNPG[/URL] is what we have. You can set the ringer for several different tones. Wife is disabled, and our computers are at opposite ends of the house, cell phones and intercom systems have failed us repeatedly, so we got another system for her, and I've got it set to play "Für Elise" for her, and it's called the Mommie door bell...
