This is my main problem...

Any of the areas where the boys can get to...IDK...should I just give up??

Calling ANY and ALL ideas for anti-puppy plants/landscaping...

I need pictures...ideas...experiences!!!

Hallllpppp.....I'm sick of spending money to have things eaten, dug up or dead from doggie pee!!!

I put chicken wire under the soil around tree roots it seems to work.

DH has built this 1 foot high fence on my 4x8 veggie beds. When we first plant we put one on top to keep the digger out. Once the plants are mature she looses interest.

I have made a few of these fences around ground level plantings.

I already pinned your branch fences. Love them!! These pups are so naughty!!!

Honestly... we don't plant anything where the dogs can get it. I tried netting around a raise garden bed once and my dog plowed right through it. Therefore we have a fence around our garden, and the dogs get the rest of the lawn.

Bottom line, the dogs don't get access to ANY part of the yard that has the ability to be ruined or dug up. (they sometimes dig up the actual lawn... that really pisses me off)

Yes they are!!! Our JRT has taught the Husky pup how to dig for critters...The pup has taken it upon himself to remove all of the landscape lighting...

Naughty naughty sneaks!!

You have my sympathies. I only have a potted plant garden on my back porch for this exact reason.

Yep, most of my gardens are in the front yard where they are safe from dogs. My veggie garden is in the back yard, but is separately fenced. I do have a few small gardens back there, with some hostas and annuals. Ru always used to leave them alone, but he did pee in/on the rock garden all the time.

AFA your solar lights, if I remember your stairs up to your front doot, they are rail tie and uni lock right? And the solar lights were in the garden running parallel? What about getting solar dock lights? You could attach them directly to the rail ties and that may prevent the little butts from getting at them.


Or there is always this

[4furrypaws]

mlal78 Yes railroad ties and brick. The lights were low voltage. I had just run all new wiring this past spring and extended it around the side of the house... I have thought about some type of integrated lighting in the steps!
