DIGGING DOG.

mrs. E. H., Arlingto1)
In answer to the lady whose
dog digs her yard up, I wish
to say that ours did the same
thing but we have finally
broken her of this II think as
she hasn't done it for some
time now. All terriers do this,
but II you try to catch them in
the act and scold and slap
them on the tail end with a
folded newspaper, and even If
you don't catch it, take the
dog up to the hole and show it
to him, he will eventually un-
derstand what you mean, and
I believe will stop digging.
Ours used to dig huge holes in
the lawn and we scolded and
spanked her, but the one time
I caught her at it seemed to
help more than anything else.
Most dogs do outgrow this
after a year. We even thought
Of tying ours to tree to keep
her from digging out the
flowers. but never got around
to it. She still steps some of
the flowers down, but we think
