WHILE owning a dog is a fun and rewarding part of life, it can come with a set of issues if you’re not careful.

And no one knows this better than Lilian Hanna, who took to social media to ask for advice after her furry friend destroyed her bedroom door. 

Taking to the Facebook group ‘DIY Home Improvement Projects and Advice’, she explained the situation before asking people how she could fix it without replacing the whole door. 

“My dog damaged my bedroom door, what’s the most aesthetically pleasing way to fix this besides replacing the door?” she wrote in the caption of the post. 

Underneath this, she shared a photo, which showed a simple white door with a massive hole going from the bottom all the way up to the doorknob and beyond. 

One quarter of the door appeared to be in tatters and viewers were left bewildered at the amount of damage her dog had done.

People were quick to comment – with some even suggesting an affordable option that wouldn’t require much effort from her either. 

"I would search for a free or cheap door on marketplace. The other option is to buy a thin board from Home Depot and glue it on top,” one person wrote. 

And a second agreed, adding: "Measure it and check FB marketplace someone prob giving and internal door away for free or very cheap and replace it." 

While a third shared: “Keep a lookout for free doors on Marketplace.”

If she found a door on Facebook marketplace, it could mean she could fix the issue without spending a penny. 

Meanwhile others tried suggesting alternatives as one person wrote: “Cover with a piece of thin plywood then paint best would be replace”. 

Another said: “One sheet oh hardboard, painted white or pre coloured white. Look like new, until the dogs left in the bedroom alone again”. 

And some were left unsure about fixing the door as her dog might end up doing the same thing again in the future. 

“I'd be worried he would do the same to the next door, and would probably remove the door put up a curtain and use a dog gate if you needed to keep him in a certain area at night etc. But that's just me,” one person said with a crying with laughter emoji. 

While another added: “Wait till he stops chewing and then replace it!! ( i’m guessing he’s a pup?)”.
