dog digs hole
 
My dog keeps digging a hole in the same spot and I keep filling it up
with dirt. This spot is right in front of the steps off the back deck
so I can't leave it there. I yell at her, I bring her over to the hole
and tell her "No" or "Bad Dog" but she keeps doing it. There isn't
anything there other than fresh dirt and the hard compacted stuff
underneath it.

How can I stop the dog from doing this?

Good luck. Dogs lay in dirt to cool themselves (belly). To eliminate
the body heat. My African dog lays on cool tile or slab concrete in
the garage or on the patio.

Get a shovel full of lion or tiger scat from the local zoo, bury a
little under- or mix some with- the dirt you back fill with. Your dog
will steer clear, way clear....

There are a couple fixes he

No idea if they work but they'd be handy.

Are you sure? Jimmy Hoffa may be buried there.

Hi Badgolferman,

This is because she is a domesticated wolf. Wolves
bury their catch for later dining. And they will
steel from each other, so if they find a hole, they
will dig it up figuring there is dinner beneath.
She keeps digging it up because she sees that it
has been disturbed.

Okay, here is a trick a dog lover told me.

1) put the dog somewhere she can't see what you are doing.

2) blow up a ballon, tie it off, and put it in the hole

3) thinly cover the hole with dirt. Don't try to hide
the cover up job. You want her to think another
dogs has had at the hole. Just make it so she
can't see the ballon and will scratch at it. This
will make her think another dogs buried food.

4) let dog lose in the yard. Scratch! Bang! Problem
solved.


Do this with all her holes.

Laughing is allowed.

Start peeing on that spot every night.
See if that stops the dog from digging there.

No, no, NO. Johnny Carson said they found a Hoffa shoe on the moon.

Back in the day Jimmy worked in a prison factory. By around 1992 there
were no more demand for Jimmy Hoffa mattresses.

Dogs love the stink

It comes from their wolf heritage. They are covering
up their scent for hunting purposes. It is instinct.

There are 3 big pillars in the Teamsters international building in DC.
One has a picture of Dave Beck, One has a picture of Fitzsimmons and
the 3d doesn't have a picture. My niece says he is in that one.

Bury some of the dog's own **** there, not too far down, and it won't dig
there again.

When the balloon pops, the compressed air (and sand) blasts outward and into the dog's eyes.

Not something I'd do to my dog.
