Patch is a little digger!
I came home the other day and my yard is now patchy grass and dirt.
When he first started digging, we started pouring citronella into the holes... so he stopped digging those holes (he doesn't like the smell - great, we had a repellant! WRONG..)
Now... he just finds other holes to dig... in other parts of the yard... and they are ALL over the yard now.
I almost broke my ankle in one of them! They're getting deeper as he gets older.
How do we stop this digging?
I've heard of suggestions to buy him a sandpit and encourage him to dig there? Do you think that will work?
Also... how do you get them to poo in one section of the yard? I'm tired of my yard being a landmine.... for some reason he likes poo-ing DIRECTLY under the washing line!!!!!
