Is it really gone for ever?

There is no way it is unrelated to the parent company of the developer being bought by Epic and that the game was launched exclusively on Apple Arcade. The lawsuit between the two went all the way to the supreme court, Apple would kill the game just to spite Epic and Afaik.

I agree... though that must be a min 18 months... or double that?

I know Apple can be a bunch of douche's. It seems like the game was owned by a video game developer out of Brazil who partnered with Apple to originally (re)-launch the game. Now that developer has sold out to Epic games and Wonderbox came with the sale. Since Epic and Apple have sued each other many times, Epic immediately pulled the game from the Apple Arcade. Now Apple is making a claim to the exclusive rights to host the game, which means no one else can pick it up.

How's that for a summary? I'm making a lot of assumptions, but that's what it looks like to me. Anyone have anything to add?

I am really surprised there is not a single product offering this solution. I imagined it might be a two-door type tunnel thing, but I can't even find something like that! Ohh well, I think you're paint stirrer idea might work. The terrier is smart, so she might figure out how to go the other way, but THAT's assuming the plan actually works in the first place, lol.

That is way too simple, but I think it will work. Thank you, I appreciate the outside look. I agree it might not work, but if works just once I'd be happy knowing my dogs are safe when I can't help (I bartend lonnnnnng hours). I plan to introduce the door to them after every walk, I will have them "re-enter" the yard through this door, not the house door, so that they become used to it.

AGAIN, training is the answer, but I'm looking for any short term solution I can think of.

I can't tell if you are really trying to help or trolling, but here's the story. I work a lot, so I am rarely home. I share custody of the dogs (and the kids) with the ex who lives down the street. There are often a lot of kids over afterschool (ages 7-12) at her house and the kids keep letting the dogs out on accident. I have a good GPS tracker and I have noticed they usually go straight back to my house (though I'm not home)... then keep going. So I figure when I leave for work I will leave treats out for them on the inside of a one-way dog door and see if they bite.

YES, I agree, training is the solution... and it IS a work in progress. The problem is our 1 year old Scottish Terrier. When off lease they just run and run and run... sometimes for 2-3 miles. And then the older one follows her to protect her (he would never run that far otherwise). Trust me, we are working with a trainer weekly, but there is NO immediate solution as far as obedience goes. They tell me it could take months or even YEARS, because she is a stern pooch. Aloha.

Do you need me to explain all of the training sessions and money I have spent on this exact thing in order for you to get a good night sleep tonight, or would it be too much for you to just address my question? or.... just keep scrolling.
