That might confuse doggy so he thinks human food (which comes out of that big white thing) is dog food.
Leaving a sausage with some mustard inside it for him to steal might be a sneaky way of aversion therapy.

So quite the opposite of a cat:-) But I could not agree more with what you have said. I once went out with a girl that had an Alsation. The Alsation was the pack leader. I had a Border Terrier at the time and she thought that I was cruel for not letting it into my bed at night and onto the setee whenever it wanted!

Forgotton the word for it.... toggle? Get a flat metal bracket, 16mm x 50mm x 2mm with a hole in the middle, and screw it loosely to the frame of the fridge above the door. horizontally you can get in. vertical, dog cant
The correct solution is to attach a chain to the dog and stop it getting in the house.
But,again,this suggestion does not answer the real problem .The dog should be trained to know it's place and not even attempt to get in to the fridge .
It is difficult for the dog to "know its place" if its place is in the kitchen with a fridge full of temptation within easy reach. Also, you can only train the dog if you are there when it gets into the fridge.
It sounds as though the OP had a workable solution but his teenage kids wouldn't operate it. Time to train the teenage kids, perhaps, rather than the dog?
