Digging
-
You can take the
dogs (Poop) place it in the holes they are digging. Cover up. Repeat
daily. The dogs will eventually give up on your flower beds. Because
every place they dig smell like _ _ _ _. They will Probably start
digging in your lawn.
-
You can buy a very
large container of cayenne pepper sprinkle it very heavily over the
flower beds, usually one sniff and they will not go back and dig. If
you sprinkle to lightly and they might think it’s a Mexican dinner
so put a lot down.
-
Make them a
digging pit, some place it’s OK (safe) for them to dig. Some
rail-road ties in a square shape filled with sand. Bury a couple of
nice bones in there, praise them for digging them up. Keep this up
for a couple of week and you’ll find they will go there first
looking for a surprise. All the other holes they are digging are
filled either with (poop) or the cayenne pepper, the only safe place
is the digging pit.
-
Some suggest using
chicken wire to help, but will make it harder for you to plant,
weed, and maintain your garden, so will burying the poop in the
garden. The wire may cut the dogs pads and you will end up with a
vet bill if they get infected.
-
Don’t leave the
dogs outside unattended, when you leave them outside they learn from
the environment, chasing squirrels, birds, digging holes, barking,
digging under the fence and escaping. A lot of bad habits not the
good household skills you want.
-
Like
house training supervision, supervision, supervision, is your best
bet.
