READ UP ON ARTICLES PLEASE. I never had dogs that chewed or dug until I got my two new rescues. One Walker hound and on Italian Greyhound mix. I had a BIG surprise on how many poisonous plants there are when it comes to dogs. Mine dig and chew and eat things. Tulip bulbs, iris rhizomes, daffodil bulbs, azalea, hosta. The list is extensive so please go online and read all of the articles you can. Do not take the advice of many people who THINK they know. Listen to the experts and make good judgements. I put down 10 bags of cedar mulch last fall. Then the dogs came into my life. So.....up came 10 bags of mulch since both were chewing on it.
Not a fun project. For the love and health of your dogs....don't listen to all you read on this site as I have found a lot of nonsense and false information. Please, please, do your own research. I was shocked at how much I found out and I am a senior and having dogs in my life since I could walk.
Em, I have no plants in my yard anymore. I use to, now it’s patchy grass, leaves, dirt and tree branches (chewed up tree branches). They have chewed up my wooden sette o my deck destroyed my rugs, patio cushions.i built them a kennel but I have to put fence along the bottom 4’ before I am able to be somewhat worry free when I’m not home, Sotheby’s don’t eat the fence. They are fine when I’m there but I am seriously considering pavers throughout my back yard! Thank you for in put on plants though, all mine are out front.
Sounds to me like the dogs were never trained and not being exercised properly. Never to late to start. Might be something to look into. My friends leave their dogs with me when they travel. I have everything from a Geat Dane, Rhodesian, Greyound, to itsy bitsy Yorkies and Chihuahuas. Nobody digs, nobody destroys my plants, nobody chews the house up. But I do exercise them well at least 2 times a day.
My dogs are rescue dogs from hurricane Florence. Can you go back and train them from when they were puppies when they are at least a year old? I think not. Who knows what their past was.
I never had dogs do this before and I am well over 60. They walk a mile a day with me and get lots of exercise in the fenced in yard that just cost me over 6 grand. Normally they get a morning walk and evening walk, PLUS yard time.
