Let's talk about doggie doors

With our recent adoption of Teddy the attack schnauzer we think we should put in a doggie door. He was an outdoor dog in his past life, and seems to like to go out and wonder around the backyard on occasion. Thinking it would be nice to be able to let him come and go as he pleases. Our current patio door has an almost full height glass insert. It's tempered glass so I don't see any way of having it cut to allow a dog door put in. Is there any way we can use the existing door or should I get a half glass replacement put in? I'm thinking this won't be cheap as the door is a 36x96!

We are looking at this doggie door, so I'm not worried about other critters getting in, and our backyard is block fence so we don't get visitors, security wise, as I mentioned the current door is glass so.....

Here is the current door.



Saw this at lowes and I like the half glass and built in blinds, but it's 80" high and I couldn't find a 96" price in the store.


Finally, Teddy! He seems to be settling in to family life quite well!
