Top 5+ Expert Tips for Keeping Your Dog Out of Your Garden
Fencing
Fences are great at keeping your dog in your yard, but they can also be useful for keeping your dog out of specific garden spaces, says Kasey Bersett Eaves, owner of Vivant Gardening Services in Chicago, Illinois.
Sprinklers
Sprinklers can serve a dual purpose in your garden: keeping your beds hydrated and deterring your dog from getting too close to your plants. Look for motion-activated options that only turn on when it senses movement close by. Bonus: these types of sprinklers can deter deer as well.
Embracing Your Dog's Presence
If your dog manages to thwart all these efforts, it may be time to accept a little imperfection in your garden. After all, it's their yard, too, and they probably just want to spend time with you.
