People who forget their keys annoy me. Honestly – take 10 seconds before you exit the house, and do the “pat down dance” – I do mine in this order: “Keys, bus pass, wallet, phone” while patting areas of my body (left front pocket, right front pocket, right hip) and when satisfied I have everything, I exit.
If you are that bad at forgetting your keys, then check out a hardware store or Amazon.com for a key box/key safe. They hold a spare key in a mounted, secure box that uses a combination to access it.

In the South, a pet door isn’t a good idea. Not only does it let your dog or act in and out, but it also allows other critters in your home. Such desirable animals as rabid skunks, aggressive racoons, and nosy armadillos are just a few that come to mind. (Is there anyone who thinks waking up to bobcat chewing your toes seem like a good idea?)
You only have to forget your keys a few times to learn. For decades now – the keys have a home and that is where I find them and where I put them when coming home. … ….and I haven’t been small enough to fit through a doggie door in a very, very, very, VERY long time. .though I always wondered why someone would lock their door, but have a doggie door big enough for someone to shove a small child through. NOW you tell me they can be locked!

Oh the times I forgot my house key ….. a doggie door would have been WONDERFUL! … Pity we grow up and no longer fit through such things.

They’d better get a locking one so they can lock it when they’re away from home.

It seems Eddie wants to use the doggie door.

I have a hidden key but I’m not going to tell you where it is.
Not under the mat or over the door sill. Not in a silly rock in the garden. You might look forever and still not find it.
I have never ever locked myself out of anything. I am too anal retentive. However, I am considering the electronic lock where you punch in numbers.
Nah.

There’s a sign on my door, at eye level. As I leave it reminds me, “Keys, wallet, pants, shirt, shoes?” So far so good. :-D
