We have a pet gate, about 2 feet tall, but our dog can jump over it when we are gone, and he goes in the living room, messes on the carpet, etc... We put him outside before leaving, he just gets mad at us for leaving him alone... Anyway, he learned to jump over the gate and I don't want a shock collar! So, I was wondering, if there's a really tall "pet gate", about 4 feet tall ( I'm sure that'll do)
Thank you very much!

You may want to consider a crate, which is a better containment option, anyway. And: he could not jump or climb out of it.

There are a few real keys to dog training, whether you are trying to train your dog to come when called, sit, stop barking or any other behavior. Understanding their importance is critical to achieving rapid results that are long lasting and help develop the bond between you and your dog. Read more here https://biturl.im/aU1I0
The first is simple; you must win your dogs mind. If you don't achieve this first then you will be struggling the all the way. When I talk about winning your dogs mind what I really mean is that your dog looks to you for all the decisions. Before you do anything else watch one of the amazing video sites that show you the 5 Golden rules to establishing yourself as the pack leader. If you aren't putting these in place then you are setting yourself up to fail. Just at the crucial point where you really want your dog to listen they will go and do their own thing. For sure your dog may play ball occasionally or even most of the time, you may even have a dog that is obedient 99% of the time, however if you want a dog who always listens to you and does as you ask then you need to win your dogs mind.
The second key to success is to motivate your dog. It is really important that you discover what it is that your dog enjoys both in terms of exercise and play but also in terms of a reward. If you can make the experience enjoyable then you will both achieve more and look forward to training.
Some dogs love to fetch, others love agility, and other dogs simply love obedience training, or swimming out into water and retrieve. At least to start with find out what your dogs love is and help them develop this, what I am saying is work with your dog. The other point to recognize is to make training enjoyable reward your dog.

The height depends on the size of the dog. You'd be surprised at how high some dogs can jump. As for a taller gate, go to a larger pet stone or even the lumber yard and build one yourself! There is also a reason why the dog messes on the carpet. It could be stress or it might even be a health problem. As a side note, dogs don't get mad like we do, it's stress. Dogs are pack animals and when we leave them alone, they don't understand why the pack had been broken up. Therefore, they get all stressed out and exhibit what we call bad behaviour. Sorry if this sounds like phsyco-babble, I just try to put myself in my dogs shoes to figure out what he might be thinking.
All the best, good luck...

5 Foot Baby Gate

You could always try a child gate, some of them are pretty tall. They're also very sturdy. If that doesn't work out for you, why don't you get a crate for him? Just make sure the crate is big enough so he can move around a bit.

6 Foot Baby Gate

I would go to walmart and buy TWO baby gates that are spring loaded so you can adjust them to your doorway. You could put one one the bottom and another over that to give it the height you need. Or you could make a doorway yourself with plywood and some hinges. I hope you don;t leave him home alone too long, that will make a dog lonely and bored. Make sure you leave him lots of toys and a chew bone. If all else fails, maybe a crate would work but please remember that dogs do get bored !!!
btw---you can buy 2 pressure mounted gates at walmart for 20$---the one listed below (extra tall) is over $60 !!!!!

Considering most doorways are only 6 feet high, I highly doubt you'll be able to find a pet gate that high. Most are only 2.5 ft high. Try training your dog to go to the bathroom on newspapers, or get a doggy door so he can go outside as he pleases. Assuming that you have a fenced yard, of course. If all else fails, sounds like he might need training classes.
