Some dogs were just born to dig! Unfortunately, this can wreak havoc in your yard and in your home. Here are some tips for dealing with a digging dog.

If your dog likes to go at it in the house, make sure you tack down carpeting so he can’t tear it up. When it comes to furniture, consider covering it. It’s a lot less fun to dig at the couch if the cushions can’t be moved!

Chances are, your dog is just bored! Make sure he is more stimulated by taking him on walks and playing games with him inside and outside.

If your dog insists on digging, create a safe digging zone for him in the yard. It’s a lot like having a sandbox for your pet!
