How to Keep Dogs Out of Flower Beds?
Our well-tended flower beds add vibrancy
and color to life, which often attracts our dogs. In the dog's eyes, the newly
turned soil in the flower beds, the insects between the flowers and the grass
and the unknown small wild fruits are all new things. The abundant sunshine and
sweet air in the flower beds make the dog more willing to dig in the flower
beds. We believe that dogs do not deliberately destroy flower beds, but those
growing plants are hard to bear the dog's unconstrained play. After losing some
plants, the dog's behavior in the flower beds may bring you several big pits,
and the flower bed is in a mess.
Many dog owners who have the same problems
have practiced many ways to solve this problem. Let's choose the one that suits
you!
1. The most ideal way is when the dog
appears around the flower bed, the dog owner can accompany, to achieve the
effect of supervising the dog. Always pay attention to the dog walking, once
the dog appears to destroy the flower bed, the dog owner can stop them in time
to minimize the destruction of flower beds. But not all owners have such ample
monitoring time, so it is a good choice to give protective measures to the
flower beds in advance.
2. It should be emphasized that we do not
recommend using chemical reagents to expel dogs. Chemical damage to various
plants is uncertain and can damage the soil. If our pets are unfortunately eat
chemicals, it can have unpredictable consequences. Marigold is very suitable
for flower beds. They have a beautiful view and a special smell. Dogs don't
like this taste, so plant some marigolds in the flower beds to prevent dogs
from entering the flower beds.
3. The use of sound waves is also a way of
not recommending. Special sound waves may shock the naughty dogs, but they also
scare away the birds that come to the flower beds, so that the flower beds are
a lot less vitality.
4. Some common things can also effectively
expel dogs. Dogs don't like spicy and bitter, so it's possible to sprinkle some
chili powder, orange peel and coffee grounds in the flower beds. These
materials are easy to obtain and they are less harmful to the soil, which is an
environmentally friendly choice.
5. Building a fence can isolate dogs and
flower beds, which is a bit expensive and complicated. If you want to do it in
a simple way, you can choose some pine cones and spread them in the flower
beds. Dogs don't like to step on it. When trimming the flower beds, we can
deliberately leave some more prominent thorns or plants. You can choose any
method you like to create some trouble in the path of the dog entering the
flower bed.
6. When the dog is still young, we can
guide them to avoid the garden, train them to be more interested in toys, and
give them a sense of security. A dog that trusts the owner will be more
obedient to the owner's instructions.
The process of competing with dogs for the
right to use flower beds is a long-term battle. If the dog just likes to walk
in the flower bed, it may be better to leave a special road for it than to
shuttle the plants between plants. If the dog likes to dig, the owner can also
leave a space in the flower bed for the dog to play freely. Meet the dog's
little hobbies, the dog will no longer destroy the plants in the flower beds.
