Your dog may dig in your yard to escape. He may hear children or dogs in other yards and want to join in the fun. He may dig to find damp earth to lie in and keep cool. And he may just be bored. Thus if you mitigate some of these issues you may prevent your dog from digging in the yard. Make sure your dog gets lots of exercise and walks outside the yard. Consider taking him to the dog park for socialization. Give your dog fun things to do so he doesn’t get bored. Your dog may like to dig in flowerbeds where the soil is softer. Use low garden fencing to prevent your dog from digging. Keep outside excursions short during hot weather so your dog doesn’t overheat. And don’t leave your dog alone in the yard for long periods of time. For additional information, contact your Marietta, GA veterinarian; visit their profile to know more.
