If you’ve got a digging dog, you’re no doubt familiar with the sight of your carefully manicured garden covered in holes and soil. One minute the grass looks great, and the next, it’s scattered everywhere.
Digging isn’t bad behaviour. It’s not defiance or revenge. It’s natural. Dogs dig for a reason, and most of the time it makes perfect sense to them, even if it doesn’t to us. Once you figure out why your dog’s doing it, you can manage it much more easily.
