You love your pet – until he or she starts digging up a bush or digging a hole in your yard to hide a chicken bone in. But there are ways to make your yard more beautiful and comfortable for your pets at the same time.
Know your dog’s habits.
Some like to dig; others are always looking for some paths, loopholes. Understanding your pet’s habits will help you adapt your yard, and you won’t be overwhelmed by a ruined flower bed or a toppled and broken clay gnome.
Dogs like to dig the ground in search of something.
Of course, gravel paths or paved paths do not provide such an opportunity and are not provided for this. Do it for your pet, plan a sand area specifically for such activities of your dog. You can hide some toys in there beforehand to make it more attractive to Barbos.
Dogs like to walk on their paths.
Track the paths your dog takes most often in your yard. Paving these paths with paving stones (finished if your landscape design allows). You can also use mulch, but make sure the pieces are not too small (otherwise the mulch will stick to the paws and end up in your house). In addition, never use mulch made from cocoa bean husks – it is harmful to pets.
Own territory.
It is very important for dogs to understand the boundaries of their territory, in which they feel safe, and which they will protect in case of intrusion of uninvited guests. Dense green plantings along the borders of your yard or fences will help them with this, but we still recommend that you check for any holes, loopholes, holes and eliminate them.
A cool, cozy place in the shade.
Arrange for your pet a more comfortable place than under a bush: a small canopy or a small gazebo, which allows them to enjoy their rest with you.
Health of the dog.
Very often, when maintaining green spaces, chemicals for pest control or fertilizers can be used. These substances can have an adverse effect on domestic animals. During such works and when choosing certain reagents, be sure to consult with specialists about the effect of these substances on domestic animals.
