How to deter dogs
My neighbours dog sometimes strays from his back garden into mine. Our
border is hard to secure as there are many rhododendrons etc., and it's not normally an issue. We get on very well The issues are that perhaps his dog will get out via my back then front garden as I have no gate Also it's leaving some unwelcome mementos behind. I'd hate to upset my neighbour, it's his boundary . I wondered if there are humane deterrents that will keep dogs out ? |
