I feel bad.............Chance my 12 week old mix puppy, occasionally likes to dig in the yard. I always tell him to leave it. And initiate a game of fetch. My mother in law said I was being cruel, not letting the dog dig, because that what they do. But I really don't want a bunch of holes in my yard and I definitely don't want him digging under the fence and getting out. I don't leave him alone in the back yard for long periods of time but sometimes he is alone, like when I'm cooking or using the rest room.
My question is am I wrong? Should I allow the dog to dig. Sometimes he just digs to dig and sometimes he might have a bone he's trying to bury.
My other question is if I shouldn't let him dig is there anyone that has had success in stopping this behavior? And how did you do it?
Thanks Lisa!
