Digging

Question
Our 7 year old Terrier mix has suddenly started digging  a large hole in the lawn. No amount of scolding or refilling will stop him from returning to the same spot. Any suggestions?

Answer
Hi Gary
What I do soon as one starts a hole I put dog poop into it and cover lightly.  I keep doing this until it discourages it from digging.
Make sure the Terrier is getting to walk and run some daily as the Terrier groups need alot of daily exercise or they bore readily and start bad habits hard to break.


Kind Regards
