That Isn't Fertilizer

Rocko is a very sweet dog.


But he likes to poop in our garden. It didn't have much in it during the winter, but we knew this would be a problem throughout the Spring and Summer. We did have broccoli that was growing well. After finding several deposits in and around the broccoli, I'm not even feeding it to my kids. Maybe I should feed it to the dogs.

We needed a fence at least 2 feet high. He's not a jumper. Garden fences are expensive. Pretty, but with 50 feet to cover, it could easily cost $100. So, we came up with our own solution.

PVC and nylon twine.



He won't go near it. David even stood in the garden and called him and he just sat there on the other side of the "fence".

It's not the prettiest, but it only cost $10!
