Anyone have any good ideas on what works for a flap on the front of a dog house. Something that is chew and tear proof but flexible enough to let the dog in easily.

We used to use papermill felt. Works good dog can chew and pull all winter.
If you can find any give it a try.

Papermill felt?? Did you get waste from a mill or from somewhere else?

I've used pieces of carpet-they don't last long but are cheap. Then I used Big mudflaps from semi's and cut them to fit-they work well. Then I went to aluminum Dog doors. I have had these same doors for 15+ years and they work great. they are made of 1/8th inch aluminum. They don't bend, dogs don't chew them and they don't rust. i got them from a place in kansas that I think is out of business. wouldn't do it any other way.
