Can't say that we have that problem with our dogs with the pond. We have
golden retrievers (who are known to chew and dig) they never have done that
with the pond. They LOVE being in the pond and up in the Waterfall. Here is
a link of one golden enjoying the waterfall.

Who knows how your dog will react to it full and running the trick will be
how to keep the dog out! Fortunately, we haven't had to try to keep our dogs
out not sure what we would do if they were distructive in any way.
Good luck.

om...
My wife and I have two dogs that we love dearly. We just bought a
house that has a pond. Unfortunately, there's a leak in it and the
pump is burnt out so it's been sitting there growing mosquitos for
some time now. Our dogs got in it the other day and decided that the
liner tasted pretty good. They ate several holes into it and tore it
up pretty bad.

My question to my fellow dog-loving pond owners is this: What are my
options? Have you found anything that makes for a good deterrent?
Can I expect this to continue once the pond is full and running? I
need help. Any suggestions, other than shooting the dogs, etc. would
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks much,

John
