Dogs are incredibly durable

About a month ago we had an incident where our dog (7lb poodle, 14 years old) ran under the garage door just as it was closing. She was too short for the sensor to detect her and the door closed on her. It did reverse when it was about 1" from the floor. She was flat. Save all the drama, vet trip, etc and 2 weeks after the incident it is like it never happened. I reset the sensors very close to the ground. I really thought that was it for her being an old dog. Hopefully this might save someone some with a small dog, child etc. The closing force is high on our operator since the door is rated for high winds.
