Heres my newest video - Dog Digging: How to Stop a Dog From Digging.
Dogs dig for 3 big reasons:
1. Boredom - Your dog is out in the yard with nothing to do and hes finding something that he enjoys to pass the time.
2. Lack of exercise - Hes got energy and its always coming out one of two ways: constructively or destructively. If you dont provide enough constructive outlets for his energy he will find something destructive, like digging to China.
3. Lack of supervision - You can only correct behaviors you can see and witness first hand. Your dog is out in the yard creating repetitions and forming habits and you want to make sure they are the ones you want.
Ok, we know your dog is digging holes in your yard and we now know why hes doing it so how about some treatment plans.
1. Supervise 1:38 - An obvious one but needs to be said. Dont leave your dog unattended in the yard for too long. You need to be out there teaching him right from wrong.
2. Exercise More 1:58 - If your dog is digging holes in your yard hes telling you hes got excess energy, so give him some good ways to release it. Up your exercise with him.
3. Give Him Something to Do Out There 2:10 - Dont expect your dog is running laps. If you dont give him something cool to do, hell find something and it may include trying to digging. Put out some new toys and bones before you let him out or throw a handful of his dry food into the grass and let him spend some time looking for it.
4. Let Him Dig 2:40 - Pick a corner of your yard and build him a digging pit filled with loose dirt or sand. Then encourage him to dig there by burying some fun things for him to find, like bones, toys or stuffed Kongs.
Digging is a common problem but is pretty easy to treat. Just follow the above tips and everyone will be able to enjoy your nice, hole free back yard.
