Digging is a natural behavior for many dogs but can wreak havoc on your lawn. Here’s how to keep their digging in check:
Create a Digging Zone: Designate a specific area in your yard where your dog is allowed to dig. Fill it with loose soil or sand and bury toys or treats to encourage them to dig there.
Training: Teach your dog commands like “no dig” and redirect them to the designated digging zone. Positive reinforcement is key.
Physical Barriers: For persistent diggers, consider installing barriers like chicken wire or garden fencing around your flower beds and other vulnerable areas.
