Bloody dogs digging out bulbs
Howdy,
A local dog has been digging out the front garden bulbs every day. I reckon it's the blood and bone, which has been fairly well dug through the soil... I wouldn't have expected it to attract them *shrug* Anyway, is there something to keep them at bay ? I'm tired of having to replant a few bulbs each morning - luckily they haven't taken root or anything yet. cheers, -kt |

get a cat.
This will distract the dog away from the bulbs. Jock "kingsley" wrote in message newsan.2003.09.10.21.49.11.871795@maddogsbreakfa st.com.au...

Blast the dog full in the face with the hose and keep blasting until it goes away. Do this a few times in succession and it ought to work. -- Trish {|:-} Newcastle, NSW, Australia |
