I’ve never had a dog that dug holes, but we did have a puppy that thought things on the clothesline were pull toys. More than one sheet had to be rewashed!
Most interesting hole dug by a dog was a dachshund chasing a gopher. He was very scientific about how he carefully enlarged the gopher hole so he could fit in. I don’t know if he caught it but he was so thorough and careful I remembered dachshunds were bred to chase (dig out) badgers.
I had to dig a lot of holes in the back yard. My kids wanted lots of pets. Daddy’s job was to bury them. Each time I hoped that would be the last but nope.

“But they didn’t do this. The holes were from their owner trying to figure out where he buried his money stash several months ago.”

Yep! A lot of dogs! Yes sir! Didn’t clean up after them either! Don’t believe me? Take two steps THAT way.
But, you’ll have the greenest lawn in town!

Where are all the ‘yellow spots’ on the lawn? Digging holes is only part of the negative impact of a dog’s back yard.

Shouldn’t there be “piles” instead of holes?

A little yard work for an ocean view, seems worth it.

If that is the ubiquitous desert island, I’ve never seen one with more than one coconut tree!

My client demands a discount - err, wait, that would reduce my ridiculously high fee. Hmm!
