Place plastic see through water bottles around the garden. This stops
them from ****ing and pooing all over the garden.


Urban myth


Not at all. Have two dogs and they keep clear of the garden.
The neighbours dogs don't **** in the garden either.


How do you know it's the bottles? The bottles are there, the dogs behave in
a certain way but how do you know one causes the other?


Because before the bottles they ****ed and pooed over the garden at
regular times during the day. I only found out about it at dog
training school where I asked how to stop the dogs from ****ing and
pooing in the garden. They advised placing a clear water bottle and
placing water in the bottle. It did the trick. That was a couple of
years ago.


The reason why they don't **** around where their is a bottle of water
is that the dog does not want to possibly pollute its drinking water
supply.


How do you know this? It sounds sort of plausible but that's not evidence.


Found out about it at dog training school.
Bound to be on google somewhere.
