We have had this tent for a couple of years and its excellent, well except for 1 small problem.
It has a ZIG, except for the very front section, which is only held by a few bits of velcro. We always have to keep the dogs on their leads incase they escape throught this part. Does any one have some idea on what we can do to fix this. Though of using poppers but not sure how to go about this. I have seen the review of this by Jenna1 and they have used poppers.

We've stuck extra velcro on there, which was fairly successful and we also use four large clingons with shockcord, on the mahoosive front door, to peg it down across it's entire width. You're right it's a crap design but with a great barn of a place like an Aspen I can't see how they could have done it differently. We never use that front door anyway so we prefer to button it up tight once we've used it to unload our kit ( we put the back of our car just inside the tent to unload). During the day we roll the window blinds and place them over the gap and put mats over them to keep them in place, it can get a bit draughty sometimes but not a showstopper. With the front all securely pegged down you could put your dogs' baskets/beds right at the front, giving them a bit of fresh air and keeping any draughts off you !!
We should start an owners club and go on a Khyam Aspen Rally
